Personal Notes:
Grandma Joie Elmer never showed up empty handed when she saw her sons and grandsons. Everyone had their favorite treat and she would bring fresh baked goodies to her boys at every visit. As of her 94th year, she is still baking and made 3 separate desserts at Thanksgiving and brought everyone Snickerdoodles at Christmas!
