Freschetta & The Strength of 1

 

 

When I was in my mid 20s I met a lady whose attitude would forever change my life. Her name was Dixie and she was a self reliant strong women who had battled cancer early in life and somehow made it through all the pain and prayed everynight that if she was able to live to see her grand-daughter that she was raising to reach her 18th birthday and graduate from highschool. Some of the stories she could share with you would make you stand up and take notice because this lady who had went through so much she was one of the happiest person that I have ever met. For she had faith in God and knew that tommorow was not always promised and to use each day as she should. Sadly this lady would watch her grand-daughter graduate from highschool and shortly after time seemed to give out as Dixie passed on to a better place.
