Mary Ann Lindberg

Biography

Of Mary, her daughter-in-law said, "Mother loved children, before her stroke she used to sit out on the porch swing, made by Sam in High School, surrounded by children… Mother would come across the alley and pick up Larry, our oldest child, and try to cuddle him and carry him around. Ina told me never to allow mother to pick him up as her one side and especially her arm had been weakened by her stroke. It nearly broke my heart to tell her, as I could see how she loved him and I saw the tears in her eyes when she couldn't carry him." Written by Zelpha Gillette
