Marian Coffman Nash

Jefferson, Iowa

Brick Section G - Row 15

Thank you, Grandma,

for teaching us acceptance by welcoming everyone into your home--even stray cats.

for teaching us respect for the elderly through your giving of time, transportation, meals, and love to countless senior citizens.

for instilling in us a love of music through your lifetime participation in vocal music.

for showing us it is never too late to learn something, new by learning to drive and manage money at 40, and tackling a computer at 72.

for showing us there is "always room for one more" and there is "always enough time" by making time to listen to your eight children and ten grandchildren.

for instilling in us a reverence for education by leaving home at 14 to work your way through high school.

for loving us through your sweet rolls, plum jelly, apple pie, and home perms.

for keeping your thumbnail sharp to keep us in line.

for bringing this family through the pains of losing loved ones and the joys of receiving new life.

for your undying faith.
