One of the last great memories we had was getting her first ever passport and along with Jim and Kyla we took her to Las Vegas. We were on Fremont street with her being in a wheelchair, when a couple of male performers nicknamed her hot wheels. She blushed like a school girl. We had a wonderful trip there including taking her inside the Hoover Dam. And she saw the date it was finished. 1935 and commented that was when I was born. God bless her heart. We will miss her forever.
