First time I meet grandma Hattie she scared the hell out of me. She didn't want to park away from Johnny and brittneys house so Johnny didn't see her car for his surprise birthday party. She said I'll park right here and you'll like it! Later that day she told me she loved the drinks that I made for her and thanked me for helping get the party put together for Johnny. The next several times I saw her she would give me a hug without even thinking twice about it. What an amazingly genuine lady. I know that all of you will miss that sassy, fiesty, big hearted lady and I know JR and I will miss her too. Our love and prayers are with all of you.
