Memories of Carl Gray, 30 Aug 2000, "Granny Bricker was old the first time I saw her. She smoked a corncob pipe and chewed Beechnut tobacco that she would spit in the ash pan that sat in front of the old wood burning stove in the living roomom. She had long light yellow and white hair that she wore in a bun at the top of her head.After all these years, I can still taste her (Francis') chicken and dumplings. We would visit her often on Sundays and that was normally the Sunday meal. I can still visualize the old yellow, two story farm house where she used to live in Rinard when we were kids. It had a large garden, honey bee hives down by the creek which was north of the house, chickens, guinea fowl, pigs, and cows. Easter lilies, tiger lilies, lilac bushes, and collared greens. She churned her own butter and sold eggs for income. She would often have a quilting frame set up in the living room where she would hand make quilts. It would take up most of the living room. As small kids, we would play under it and I would pretend it was a fort. She had old large wooden framed pictures of family members and an old wooden crank telephone on the wall.

A couple of her daughters lived in St. Louis.

My (Carl W. Gray) previous research indicated that she died on June 9, 1968. According to her obituary, however, this is the date that she entered the hospital. Also, according to her obituary, her funeral was conducted on June 20, 1968 (Thursday) and that she died on the previous Monday. Since it would have been unusual to keep her body for 11 days, I conclude that she must have died on June 17, 1968.

Birth:
