Life As An Only Daughter

Providing loving, kind, compassionate care for your loved ones one is my primary concern. Being an only daughter in a big Irish family I not only took care of my brothers and cousins but also my Grandparents. Some of my best times were at Grandma's house. We made jam, the best fudge and played cards.
