         Grammy was a thin lady, nearly frail. A memory I have of her was at 90 East Street, washing dishes at a porcelain sink which was a single, not a double, and boiling water on a gas stove to pour over the washed dishes to rinse them. I'm sure Jo Anne and I were asked to do the dishes, but that had been preceded by a great macaroni and cheese dinner 

         When we were living in Washington state in the 1960s, when dad went to Viet Nam for the first time in 1965,she and her sister, Aunt Hazel, came to visit by train, all the way from Vermont, and apparently in getting around in the station when they arrived, they both fell down an escalator. (Each survived to tell the tale. Hazel was the elder of the two and my impression at the time was that she was in charge. When I saw them upon arrival, they both had on heavy, dark overcoats and hats)  My mother remembered that her Aunt Hazel purchased second hand toques for them as Christmas gifts, which were a tight fitting  kind of cap/hat popular in the 1920s..
