Aunt Syble's Iris


Aunt Syble Garrison gave me this yellow iris. She is actually my
Mema's first cousin. Her father and Grandma Renfroe were brother and
sister.

I remember when Bill lost his first tooth. I told him to put it under his pillow and the tooth Fairy would leave him some money. He wanted to know if you had to be good for the Tooth Fairy to come like you had to be good for Santa and the Easter Bunny to come. I told him definitely!

Mema is Laura's Grandmother.
Syble is Mema's Cousin.
Granny Renfroe is Mema's Mother.
Uncle Joe is Syble's father.
Joe and Granny are full brother and sister.
Larry's was raised partly by Granny. The first 6 or 7 years of
his life he lived with Granny and
Ethel lived there too. She was his mother, but almost like his sister. Then when he was 7; he tried living with her and her new husband. It did not work out very well. He would live with Mema some and Granny some. I do believe his motherly feelings were for Granny. He had a great love for his mother, also.
