    Notes:

    Loved to read detective magazines
    From mom about her mother:
    I just wish you could have known her. She was the greatest!!! She was just a plain poor person, but everyone loved her. She had more people at her funeral than a politition does. Even the mayor came to her wake. (that's because she worked for him delivering his campaign flyers door to door before he got elected. I guess he didn't forget. There wasn't any one like her, I don't even come close. Everyone loves their mother.. no matter what, but she was special.
