Seagram’s 7
Yes, Karen, that’s Grandma Seagram there in the middle of all those nurses.
That was World War II, my dear, and she was the driver for all those wonderful women.
In fact, because Grandma drove them around, they called themselves “Seagram’s 7”.
No, you’re too young to understand what that means, but that was a funny name they gave themselves at the time.
Most of all, remember this, sweetheart, that Grandma was a very brave woman, well-loved and highly regarded, and as old as she may seem to you today, she was, and in many ways still is, an incredible woman.

Yes, she still is. Awesomeness of that degree doesn’t lose its power.
Yes. And it lives on after…
Thanks, Randy
As youngsters, we find that hard to accept, that old people used to be young once upon a time!
that is the truth….
Randy
Little moments like this one are what remind the Karens of the world about the depth of their roots. And about the legacy they can add to.
Lovely flash.
We must pass it on, and in doing so, build confidence in our young ones to create great things, to be of service, to give back.
Thanks for your comments, Randy
