This is where it all started.
Fanny, my grandmother.
She made the quilt squares listed a few posts back.
Mom relayed to me that Fanny
as a young woman became an actress
and when the travel became too
much for her father, he put a stop to that.
Would Fanny have been opposite Lionel Barrymore if given the chance?
You bet!
I went by Fanny for a time in High
School and Jr. High.
Fanny in my memories? I only have one.
Sitting in the living room on
128 e. high and
her saying, "Button, button, who's got the button?"
My great-uncle and great-aunt had a child who had severe CP named Fanny. My grandmother talked a lot about her.
