A Grand Saline Christmas Day Filled With Generosity
The article recalls a warm Christmas in Grand Saline with a tiny grandchild aboard an airplane, granddad’s rocking horse, and a crowded home where Sue Gibbs and Walter provided a cedar tree. Neighbors shared dessert, warmth, and welcome for 29 guests including widows, teens, babies, and distant family, while neighbors tended to trees, ditches, and church bells.
