In Mom's childhood she and her family would go to Americus to sell cream from cow's milk. As an adult, she worked at Sumter Electric and then McCleskey Mills. She used to have lunch daily with Gloria Spann (President Jimmy Carter's sister) at Elizabeth's Tea Room on Cotton Ave. Those days are long gone and the streets of Americus are empty of what and who Mom knew.

Walter,
Gloria was married to my cousin Walter Spann. Walter Spann passed last year. Did your mom know him, too? I love Americus. You should tour The Windsor. I'm related to the family that built it. Still have family in Americus, too. Love that town.
