24. Thank you
She still is - 88 years old and still going. She raised two kids as a single mom back in the '50s when it was shameful to be divorced. Went back to school while working to get her teaching degree. Luckily, her parents were able to help her by giving us a roof over our heads for a couple of years--never went on welfare because of that. Learned early that discrimination against women was wrong because it hurt families.
