Two years ago today Grandma Hunter passed away. It was a sad day for our family (immediate and extended) as we all felt the immediate loss of an incredible lady. There are several things I learned from Grandma Hunter while I was growing up and thought I would make a list of just some of the many things I learned from her - whether by teaching outright or by example:
* A bit of butter per bite of corn on the cob is a good thing.
* Short hair is better (although I have long hair and have no plans to cut it).
* Belly laughs let others know you found something really amusing.
* Staying up until 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning to finish a good book only makes the book better.
* Winning a game isn't as fun as helping your opponents.
* Crossword puzzles are fun.
* Cookie jars should always be filled with cookies.
* You are never to old to learn something new.
* You are only as old as you feel.
* The Schwan's man is your friend.
* Extraction work is very satisfying.
* Being stubborn can sometimes be a good thing.
* Testimonies are for sharing what you know is true, not what you are thankful for.
* Serving others is very fulfilling.
* When prompted to do an act of service, do it quickly so the Lord will be willing to rely on you the next time He needs some service done.
