Henrietta was a Renaissance woman! Learning and mastering innumerable endeavors throughout her
lifetime: she tried, tackled and mastered just about anything from traditional homemaking skills like
cooking, sewing, crocheting, knitting and even tatting; gardening, canning and upholstery; to fishing,
archery, hunting and tanning hides; to butchering and plate making for the government during WWII.
She never met an animal she couldn't cook (except possum)! After retirement, Mama and Papa bought a
motor home and hit the road! They loved their extensive travels and adventures from Florida to Alaska
and many points in between.
