I think the last I heard her health was starting to fail. If you get the chance you should go see her sometime, she will talk the leg off a chair, and would love the company. A very classy lady. Worked at Campbellsville Sewing Factory for years, probably retired from there. She always used to wear high heels even to work or so I am told. You never saw her when she didn't look neat as a pin. One time she went blackberry picking and didn't return when she should have, this was after she got up in years. If the dog that was with her hadn't returned home without her, she could have been in big trouble. She had climbed a fence and fell and broke her ankle. From the way I hear the story, she was wearing heels then. I saw her pick strawberries one time dressed to the nines and wearing high heels. She's something else. When she was a kid, a cousin of hers was playing with an axe, she said the cousin accidently cut off one of her toes. Wearing heels is one thing, doing it without all your toes..........shesh!!
