She crocheted all kind dollies and other wonderful things. She even served as a midwife at times. She always had a grin when the kids came to see her. It was a real treat to go to their house at Christmas. In the 1940's Tin Foil (Aluminum Foil) was very scare, so when she found some, no matter how small of a piece she would save it and roll it into a ball. Those balls would get to 3 to 4 inches in diameter by Christmas time each year. She would cut out pictures from the Sears & Roebuck Catalog and trace around them on Shoebox cardboard. She would then take the foil and cover the cardboard pieces and make Christmas ornaments that could be hung up.
