On June 19, 1929 …….

a beautiful baby was born.  She was the second daughter to “Sook” and Mary Rose Chambers.  Her older sister was Dot and the younger sisters to follow were Cat, Betty Jo and then a baby boy Larry.  She married Cecil Glen Sircy on December 18 when they were only 17 years old.  She married him even after he left her in jail in Alabama.  Why did my sweet Grandma get put in jail, you ask?  On Friday, December 13 they ran off to get married and Granny Chambers got wind of this and called someone and they ARRESTED Grandma and put her in jail until Granny Chambers got to Alabama to pick her up.  Grandaddy always said there was nothing for him to do while Grandma was in the slammer, so he just came on back home.  They were very determined, so they just went 5 days later and got married anyway. 

Happy Birthday, Grandma.  We love you to the moon and back.
