Mom 94.0

Mom was born in 1930.

She grew up during the Great Depression. She watched Hitler rise to power (and the ex-president she says most resembles Hitler). She saw WWII. She saw the Korean War. She watched men walk on the moon. She saw the end of the Soviet Union. She saw the Berlin Wall crumble. She saw the computer revolution. She saw 9/11. She lived through the coronavirus pandemic. 

She raised two children(who both turned out okay), and got a Master's degree in English while she was doing so. She was a highly respected English teacher for over thirty years who had many loyal students. She has an unswerving sense of right and wrong, and never betrayed her principles. 

She is responsible for many of my good qualities, and none of my bad ones.
