Today is the 100th anniversary of the birth of my Grandmother Katherine Elizabeth. My mother describes her as “a genteel and lovely lady -- sensitive, intelligent, insightful, thoughtful, hardworking, and practical.” To honor her memory, today we will light a candle, think a good thought, sing a song or whistle a tune.
