Meet My Grandma Garner

Meet My Grandma Doris Adell Moulding Garner. I always loved visiting my Grandma Garner in her little mint green house, with mint green walls in Pocatello, Idaho. We would always find a candy dish that usually had black licorice in it! We would go over for Sunday dinner which was always delicious! I loved sitting in the corner seat on the bench and I really didn’t like the green lima beans she always seem to serve with the mixed vegetables! I remember eating soda crackers with butter on top for a snack! I would always try to sneak some Tang to drink while I was there! The TV was always on at her house. She loved her soap operas, and her sports. If a BYU football game was on… don’t even try to interrupt. She was their biggest fan. She also loved the horse races! I remember when I was in Elementary school she would always come to help on voting day! I would always find her and she would give me some chocolate licorice! I loved playing game with her. I remember 2 games specifically; Slap Jack and Strawberry Shortcake. I remember a little plastic bowling set she had. There was only one day a year I HATED to go to Grandmas and that was New Years Day. She always cooked Cream Cod on Toast. I thought the fish smell was going to kill me. So I would sit outside on the front step in the freezing cold to avoid such a death. When we moved away to Utah, I remember her and my Grandma Armatage would ride down together. Nothing but angels would bring them safely to our house. They would get lost almost every time, but somehow make it to our house in her little red car. My Grandma loved being a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in many callings there. I would say I got my loved of serve from her and also my love of being with friends! She always gave warm hugs, and made me feel loved. I miss her! Love you Grandma Garner! ‪#‎MeetMyGrandma‬
