Erma Bean Chadwick was an amazing woman, who lived her life with wit and humor. Erma was ever a story teller and a recorder of family & personal histories; which she continued working on until the end. ""The first thing I'm going to do when I get on the other side - is learn how to use a computer. Writing with a pen is simply too hard on arthritic fingers."" Erma died shortly after her 97th birthday. Most of the incidents presented are based on fact, as told to me by Grandmother Erma.
