I'm an elderly, energetic senior citizen who led a very active life. I birthed 11 children and as of today, I have 32 grandchildren. I love to volunteer, write and spend quality time with my husband of 47 years. I am a Catholic/Christian and have a deep faith. As you can imagine, I love kids and like to help those in trouble. Sometimes they just need a friendly ear to listen. I enjoy answering many questions on Yahoo! Answers.

16 AnswersSenior Citizens1 decade agoHave you faced the death of a loved one with a divided family making a circus out of the funeral?
My mom recently passed away at the age of 95. She had a great, long life and would be furious if she knew what was going on. To now, I have been sitting back and keeping my mouth shut, but my blood pressure is reaching a boiling point. Why do siblings and grand children have to argue at a time when we should be consoling each other and reflecting on the wonderful memories?
