Introducing the Blog for Grandma's Memoirs

While an invalid in my parents' home and then later at the home of my Uncle and Aunt, Warren and Elsie Bolender, my grandmother decided to write a book about all the experiences of her lifetime.  Grandpa Bolender also wrote a short excerpt about his early life which is included in the on-line book.  Grandma wrote all of it out by hand and it was later transcribed on a manual typewriter by others.  At one point all this was photocopied and several copies were distributed among the children and grandchildren.  I decided to recopy it again in electronic format and did some editorial changes where I thought appropriate without changing the story at all.  

Many have already enjoyed this on line and I hope it will bring back fond memories for so many who knew my grandparents.  I also hope it will inspire others to find a deep abiding relationship with Jesus that my grandparents enjoyed all their lives.
