Grand Ma Thrower

Posted on November 2, 2012 by Chip

Yesterday was the beginning of November. My aunt posted on Facebook that it was Dollie Throwers’ birthday.

Dollie is my grand mother on my dads side of the family. She passed away when on August 6, 1985. I was about 10 years old. She was 60 an would have been 98 yesterday November 1

As we were commenting back and forth, I got to thinking I didn’t remember much about her. What I did remember was she dipped tobacco and always had a cup nearby to spit in.

Another thing I remember is her sitting on a front porch in Talladega, AL somewhere. I think maybe uncle scooter and aunt sue were beside her.

When my dad passed away. He was buried next to her

Is it strange that that’s the only thing I remember about her? Probably. Since mom and dad divorced when I was 5. That is probably a reason I don’t
