Photo Grandmother Sarah Audrey Higginbottom, seen here with great grandson Carey. Circa 1987. I was her first grandchild, and we were particularly close. She brought up six children during the Great Depression and it was said of her, proudly, that she could “make a meal out of nothing”. She worked at our local school as a cleaner for a while, and we were very proud of her, before the days when manual labour was demeaned. Although she had no formal education, she was an absolute whiz at cryptic crosswords,.
