Gifts of Gradyville: Shared through stories of (much) older sibs Leanna Bennett writes: It is no secret or surprise that Melissa and Lenny are my older siblings which unfortunately for me, did not give me the opportunity to grow up with them or share the Gradyville experiences that they did. I don't remember my grandparents at all, but their legends will always live on through these stories. Melissa and Lenny both have made a conscious effort to tell me stories about my grandparents and their childhood in a manner that makes me feel as if I was there when it took place.Comments re article 52629 The Gifts of Gradyville 2012-06-19 10:22:28 | Comments | Printable version

The Gifts of Gradyville There comes a realization that the best "things" to give a child are not things at all. -MELISSA STONE. Reprinted on the occasion of the announcement that the church which inspired the story is re-opening Sunday, June 24, 2012. To see the original story, with photo of Gradyville Baptist Church, first posted posted on 2008-07-08 08:34:16 on CM, click to: The Gifts of Gradyville originally written under the name Melissa Taylor By Melissa Stone I think we, as adults, are often preoccupied with giving to the children in our lives bigger and better "things". We all do it. We all seem to want our children to have all the conveniences that we claim to never have had. My trip to Gradyville, Kentucky, was an afterthought A recent trip to Gradyville, Kentucky reminded me of something that we all know--we just sometimes tuck it way back in our mind where it's not as easily accessed, as it should be. That "something" is the realization that the best "things" to give a child are not things at all.

Carol Perkins shares Great Idea! Survival showers for couples (Mandatory, Maybe - by CJE Decree) Survival Showers: A revolutionary party idea from Edmonton, Metcalfe County, which could do for Kentucky what the the Hill Sisters of Louisville's song, Happy Birthday to You, a catchy little jingle made famous by Richard Lee Walker's melodious public renditions, did: Put the Commonwealth on the Map. Remember, you first heard it from Carol Perkins. -CM For the next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins: Raising tobacco was second nature here By Carol Sulllivan Perkins I have an idea. After a couple has been married fifty years, the community could get together and throw them a wedding shower (or maybe a survival shower). By then, they will have likely used every gift they ever received or put whatever trinkets they were given in a yard sale. They could use sheets to replace the worn-out ones, new kitchen towels to replace the ones with holes but have some life left in them, and finally throw out the chipped plates and cups. Couples, who last that long, should be rewarded for their endurance with a house full of new stuff. Sounds good to me.
