      Flossy was a war bride from England. She came over believing she would be living in Canada, when with out any warning her husband came home, to announce they were going to immigrat to the States. The thing I liked best about Grandma was her great sense of humor, never did it fail to make the day a little brighter. She was said to have cooked a lot of boiled dinners, to have loved strawberries and of course,(hot) tea. Floss was said to have been a very good singer.
