nbeaton 1 Posted April 1, 2009 My grandmother passed away today at a 101 years old. She could tell you stories her mother had told her about the Trail of Tears. Yes she was full blooded Cherokee and man when she got mad you had better watch out. I will miss her dearly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tory 0 Posted April 1, 2009 Sorry to hear you lost your Grandmother. I still miss mine but treasure all the memories. I would have loved to hear her stories. I've always been interested in Native American culture since a young girl. Used to tell my Mother, perhaps she was wrong and maybe I was part Indian..... on MANY occasions she would let me know this just wasn't the case lol. Take care and pass those stories down through your children. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nbeaton 1 Posted April 6, 2009 We laid my grandmother to rest on Sat. It was an awesome services. I found out that the last 2 months she was alive that she spoke nothing but Cherokee language so everything that was said was in both cherokee and English. And the Indian artifacts that she was decorated in was awesome. There was a Quartet that sang songs in Cherokee also. Thank you all and God bless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
