She lived from 1899-1980. I first began to follow her writings when she was a regular contributor for The Family Circle and The Ladies Home Journal back in the 1970's. In the Family Circle....she wrote 'Butternut Wisdom' and that was the FIRST article I read every month. When I discovered her books I felt like I had found a goldmine....and read each and every one.....more than once! She wrote her first book in 1925 and her last was published in 1981.....a year after her death.
She had the precious gift of allowing a person reading her books or writings to feel as though they were actually observing her life. I still feel this way! Though she is gone from this earth she lives on in the words she left behind......as do we all.
