During this holiday season, a friend asked who was the most influential person in your life.  Without hesitation I said my “Grandma Sarah”.

Grandma Sarah was a wise woman.  She was born in Greece, grew up in Turkey and emigrated to the US in early 1900’s.  She raised 4 children as a single mother and was an “entrepreneur”, owning four retail flower stores in and around New York City.  Her words and guidance had an effect on all who knew her.

Please see below “Grandma Sarah’s Words of Wisdom, which I continue to pass along to my Grandson and others.
