I jumped the gun and posted before I received all of the info from Gayle…now “the rest of the story” follows. Sorry, Gayle! I also made everything a little easier to read.
Thank you, Gayle! Take time to read more about charming Winnetoon here.

A Few Nuts From The Tree 
Gayle…..Just found this website, and was thrilled to find the stories that you have shared fo, not only your family, but also mine. You see, I am one of A.W. Crandall’s Great Grandchildren. My Grandfather was Harry J Crandall, and my Mother was Phyllis Jean Crandall (Powderly), who I know you have met. As a matter of fact, I believe you and I spoke on the phone shortly after my Mother passed away, about a book that she had you send out to myself and my sisters. Bless your heart for sharing these wonderful stories with everyone, and I am so very thankful to have found them.
