I loved my grandmother. Most week ends I spent with them on Hepburn Ave. My great grandfather George Lawrence Smith built the house. It was listed in the magazine Louisville Today. When I visited the house with my grandson Andrew Skylar Crush the fireplaces looked in as excellent condition as when I was there. The original cut glass front doors are still there today August 23 , 2004. Six fireplaces graced the house. In the living room was a white marble fireplace carved of Ben Hur and his chariot. All the door locks were of rose gold and never needed polishing. They have the original keys.
My grandmother loved to write. Each day she would lock the door and write stories, poems or meditate. One time she smoked a Lapalina cigar so she could write in twenty five words or less why it was great. When a large box of Peter Paul Mounds arrived as a prize we were delighted. To my knowledge she did not sew. I was fascinated when she would dress in long dresses to go to the Eastern Star Meetings. It was quite a feat to put on the corset that was laced up the middle of your body containing long white strings.
In those times young ladies went to finishing school in Louisville. My grandmother went to a Mrs. Nold's school. How far it went in education I do not know. She spoke perfect English, had perfect manners. She always had a maid to cook and clean. I remember Virginia that serves us in the huge dining room. Only on Thursday night did we venture into the kitchen. A large iron skillet had hash always prepared for us. Never did she drive a car.
Now I find myself wondering what she did all day without transportation and without house work. . How I wish we had talked about her early childhood and parents.
On Friday nights we would walk to the Baxter Theater. She endured Tarzan ,Buck Rogers and all the early Westerns and never complained. The cost of the movie was ten cents.
. If you had a lucky ticket you went up on the stage at intermission and were given a huge bag of groceries. We always walked. One time a bird pooped on her glasses. She looked up in the sky and said "For the rich you sing."

When she was so ill in a darkened room how I wish I had gone in to sit at her bedside. She took off her diamond ring and gave it to me. My younger daughter, Chris, now wears it in another mounting with my engagement ring and a saffire.
As I have some antiques that came down from her parents there is not a day I am not aware of her presence. If a strange noise happens in the house I always repeat her phrase, "Any spirits here please knock twice". As always I listen now as I listen then. She was open to spirits. People only chewed gum in the privacy of their bedroom. In case of a thunderstorm we headed to a bedroom with feather beds.
