Inez lived a simple life. She didn't go to movies or concerts. She didn't travel much or buy expensive clothes, jewels or gifts. She was frugal in every sense of the word. Not only did she pinch her pennies, she didn't let go of them until they started to scream. Right up to the bitter end she followed her slogan "Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without." Most of all, she refused to throw any food away. She would eat from the same can of food for days until it was gone. She believed in living within your means. And right was right and wrong was wrong!
Most of all she wanted family harmony and visible expressions of love (e.g. hugs no kisses on the mouth)! She saved it all for her five children equally. We all are receiving more than what we deserve! She loved us all and wanted the best for each of us. She lived by the Candy Bar Plan! When we lived in the white house, she would by a BIG candybar for 10 cents then one of us would get to divide it between how many people involved. The one who divides gets the last piece so you can imagine what a good job we did to get it as even as possible! (see her life story).
It's a hard job being an executor....... to keep everything fair and honest. Lots of paperwork, cleaning details, details, details and more cleaning!
Each of her five children and 27 grand children will have something to remember her by. She will always be in our hearts and our memories will have to last until we meet again!
Thanks for all your efforts! This was compiled by Mary Jean Jacobs Harline.
