Grandma, Tell Me Your Story: A Memoir , takes readers on an intimate journey through the extraordinary life of Patsy Ohlau, artfully penned by her grandson, Craig. Set against the backdrop of the Great Depression, the memoir paints a vivid picture of resilience, community, and growth. Beginning in a 1930s river town, Patsy shares candid childhood memories of small-town life along the Mississippi River, navigating through the challenges of death, murder, and love. The narrative then shifts to her experiences in the family business from the 1950s to the 1970s, all while raising a family with her husband Glenn, a trouble-prone carpenter. As weariness sets in, the story transitions to the bustling South Florida of the 1980s and 90s. Unique in its direct narration by Patsy, relayed by Craig, the memoir immerses readers in her world.
