One tale that I heard about was when Michelle was having afternoon tea with Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace; and she wore Mamo's favorite work boots. Aunt Nan (Mamo) said to Michelle, "you're not wearing those things, are you?" Michelle replied, "yes Mamo, what's wrong with them?" Aunt Nan (Mamo) told Michelle that she had worn those boots at the bog stacking turf, and working in the fields doing her daily chores. She didn't think they were proper boots to wear to visit the Queen. Michelle said, "I love these boots and they are so comfortable; and I really want to wear them.
All went well at Queen Elizabeth's afternoon tea; and Michelle was happy and her feet were happy in Mamo's boots.
Michelle is a generous and loving person; and I wish her and Ben a long, happy and adventuresome life together. (Ben, I heard good things about you too.)
Love Nancy
