$8206.00Born in rural Ne. Married a farmer and lived a harsh life with no running water or electricity. Survived the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression while raising 5 children. Always had a smile and never got angry. Volunteered at church. Developed Parkinson's in her 60's which later caused immobility and required nursing home care at 90.
