I never thought I’d find myself in the center of a story that would spread across town and change how people looked at one another. For most of my sixty-two years, I had lived a quiet, steady life. I had raised my children in a modest home, worked as a seamstress from my dining room table, and made it a point to stay away from trouble. I wasn’t one to seek attention, and the idea of being in the newspaper was something I associated with politicians, celebrities,… not with me, an ordinary grandmother just trying to do right by her family.
