The closeness and respect Appalacians have for their families is amazing........A simple life with a the family at the core of everything is important.

[@mamawfrancy]

[@gammgammx3174]

I met my husband on October 1st, 1977. We got married on December 14th 1977. We celebrated our 45th Anniverary last December. 4 kids and 3 grandkids later we are still happy.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

So wonderful!

[@Loraann54fi10]

All my grandparents passed when I was pretty young so I don't have the memories that my older siblings do. Because of that I "borrow" everyone else's grandparents and hang on every word. Thank you for sharing your Granny with us.💜

[@barbarawhite3217]

Granny is a sweetheart! Wonderful lady.

[@1doggymom907]

Granny IS a movie star! 😊 We love her!

[@tracysmith9546]

I love the quietness of your pauses between talking, reminds me of my talks with my grandma and grandpa and how there were silent moments in our conversation.

[@Homestead-20]

Granny reminds me of my mama 😢. My mom’s hair was white and cut like Granny’s, so was my grandma’s. I know you all cherish her, but I can’t help but stress that enough, to never take one moment for granted, when they are gone you miss everything about them, even their ornery side, and you think of everything you wish you did better , and everything of theirs becomes precious. There is no one like a loving mom, no one. My mama went to Jesus in 2020 on her mama’s birthday. She was 98 close to being 99. She could do for herself, had the sharpest mind, a great cook, until the last months of her sweet life, changes started happening more and more. I miss her so very much. At the end of her life she would call out for her mama, she always said you never get too old to want your mama, so it was fitting she went Home on her mama’s birthday. Thank you for sharing Granny with us all. Hold her close.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you! I'm so sorry you lost your mother.

[@SewWhittle]

What a sweetheart. I just want to hug her to bits!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

😀 She is a sweet one

[@Mrssarandy]

Right?

[@nancyl3843]

Just love her. I love when she shares her life and talents. God bless her.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

So glad you enjoy Granny 😀

[@Peridot500]

My daddy loved Silver Queen corn so much. Precious memories. Your momma is so pretty.

[@holbriland6584]

I just love when Granny makes an appearance!! She reminds me of my own granny, but my granny didn't crochet. I love the coat! I know you will all treasure the things Granny has made you over the years. Stay warm!!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

So glad you enjoy Granny!

[@Jiggidywig]

It was so sweet to here from Granny again. Memories are so precious.

[@darlingusa2pettee57]

Yes, they are. And Corie and Katie are so blessed to be close with both mother and grandmother all these years. And they have it all recorded to go back to in time. ♥

[@ruthdavis1479]

Touched my heart as there is no way expressing just how much. Bless all of you in the family. Such a beautiful patient, kind soul mate you have dear Tipper. Granny spreads such kindness and creates appreciation for her family. Such a dignified lady. My mother will be 102Sep 25th, her perfect mind and memories are an inspiration. We are all enjoying all the pretty crocheting my dear mom makes for us. I just adore each one of you. Blessed memories on you wedding anniversary and each day in good health with joy in your heart. Granny looks amazing. I love how Tipper lets her mother speak without interruptions. You videos are my favorite. I am old fashioned and so much is relatable to how nice the yesteryears were. Refreshing to see satisfied humble people who love each other. Stay healthy! Another best video.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you so much Ruth!! I'm so glad you still have your sweet mother 😀

[@mspatti]

Hello tipper. I'm sitting here with my 97 year old mother. We heartily approve of granny's love of white half runner beans. We are of the opinion that we haven't eaten green beans really unless they are white half runner beans. I crochet too, and understand the love Granny has for her work. Love to hear granny talk about her anniversary. And the dates on her pattern books😊

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you both for watching and sharing 😊

[@francesrivard9045]

OMG. Granny has huge hands for a little person.

[@serinachilders74]

Her work is so lovely, you are so blessed to have her in your life.

[@mamamode1312]

Granny, I love visits with you and Tipper. You and Pap did a fine job raising her. A blessed tradition, she and Matt have continued with their young ladies. I am right there with you, silver queen is my all time favourite corn. Many happy times with those loving family members. 🎉 Happy Anneversary 🎉🎉

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

You are so kind-thank you 😀

[@aujkalenic4203]

Granny you are such a treasure! The talent you have been given to you from our good LORD ❤️🙏

I’m a Granny fan! 🤩🥰❤ She is so precious! Some people don’t give their older relatives the time of day. Y’all are so very blessed and it shows how much you love and appreciate Granny by the way you talk with her and take care of her. Love seeing her crocheted items and listening to her stories. Praying the Lord blesses her with many healthy and happy years together with family! 😀❤️

[@francesrivard9045]

Beautiful Spring coat. Granny is very talented.

[@mamawfrancy]

This really pulled at my heartstrings because she's so much like my precious mamaw who passed several years ago at 99 yrs old. Like Granny she was talented in crocheting (honorable mention - The Last Supper), cooking, baking her famous angel biscuits, cakes pies & scratch cobblers, gardening & canning, sewing full & queen size quilts, ruffled baby quilts and all the while giving us hugs & kisses with hands busy at work. Mmmm we often enjoyed fried chicken, fresh green beans with new potatoes, fried squash, cucumber salad, sliced tomatoes, & delicious corn bread at her table. So sorry that I have rambled on so but this video reminded me of my wonderful life & memories growing up. I'm 75 yrs old and just had a great grandson and I pray I can be half the mamaw to him that I had. Granny, you have an adoring & growing fan club from many of us who've lost someone precious much like yourself. God Bless You Abundantly & Your Loving Family.

[@Needlewich]

What a great visit with Granny! I crochet and I’d love to come sit with her and crochet and chat!! She’s such a blessing! Happy Anniversary to her! Thank you, Tipper, for letting us visit with her for a while!! God bless and love to all! 💕🤗🙏🏻

[@Mrssarandy]

I love this so much. Granny DEFINITELY has fans!!!❤❤ Tipper and Corie please tell her a Texan wants to give her a huge hug.

[@donnakhammer1449]

Thanks for sharing your mama with us, Tipper! She reminds me very much of my grandma. She kept our family well supplied in sweaters, hats and scarfs. Knitting was her thing. ❤

[@teresayocum5463]

Such beautiful work,how blessed you all are to have Granny❤

[@jeanselden9794]

I would love to just sit in that room with you two for hours soaking up your love, kindness, talents and memories. So blessed to be able to listen in.

[@iviefryar694]

[@juliayoung537]

Thank you so much for this, she's still grieving so much and I completely understand... Happy Anniversary to her ❤

[@elainecrawford6891]

Big hugs to Granny. What a blessing she is! 🙏❤

[@teresaburleson7226]

Granny is a beautiful and precious lady. As I've said before, her mannerism reminds me so much of my Mother -in-law that I find myself hanging on to every word Granny says and watching her expressions, even the way she holds her hands. Amazing.😯😍 She passed away in 2021 at 101yrs young. I miss her and my Mama so much.😢

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

I'm sorry you lost them.

[@tracythompson3758]

I miss my granny so much 😢 I miss her stories. There's so much to learn from our elders they have so much knowledge ❤

[@cindyoconnell2471]

I always love older people, especially of this generation, because they are so practical and full of knowledge and skills! I love her creative crochet projects! My daughter learned to crotchet starting at 11 and made lots of stuffed animals where you crotchet in rounds called amigurumi. I am glad that Granny is feeling healthy again!

[@retprob]

Granny,bless your heart. We all love your stories. Married 52 years...

[@Ohpnuts]

I really love granny. She is such a strong women, Tipper. Her crochet is just beautiful ❤hugs to you both😊patsy

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you Patsy!!

[@leighflorkevich9916]

Granny is talented and artistic! My Maw Maw taught herself to crochet from a book and she used to make sweaters for my dolls too. She made me a vest and even a purse, which I still have. Granny made me crave green beans and new potatoes because both my Maw Maws used to cook them too. They are delicious! Happy anniversary Mr. and Mrs. Wilson! Even if Pap has left this earth his memory lives forever. I miss my husband too Granny. I think any woman that had a husband who was a good man and a good father will always miss him. God bless you!

[@Julie-u2z]

Thank you for making this video Tipper. I so enjoyed hearing granny’s memories and the sweet way you ask questions, Tipper. I’m 77 now and alone much of the time so it’s nice to see the closeness of your family. My thoughts are with you, granny as you will always remember your husband. God bless you and all the growing family.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 😊

[@CathyHendrix1]

Loved visiting with Granny today!! She looks so good! Love seeing her crochet artwork! My mom and dad are both 88 years old now. If they are still here in September, they will be married 68 years. I find that amazing. Hope ya'll are well and happy! God bless!

[@lceec7012]

Your mother is beautiful… I can see so much of you, Katie and Cori in your mother. What a blessing to have three generations to watch continue on the traditions of your home!

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you so much!

[@CathiR330]

What a delightful Lady, my granny died in Appalachia before I was born. Each summer I try to go down to Yancey and Mitchell counties in NC for Declaration Day. Cherish this granny and love her.

[@EMBERS-BECAME-BRIGHT-JOY]

That unique crochet cake is such a precious memory. I'm glad you have that great picture of it, Granny. The pretty spring coat looks warm and soft.

[@vickirose87]

Granny is so sweet! Her crocheted coat is so cheery and colorful.

[@debglaizer]

I love hearing the stories Granny tells. She is a beautiful woman. The cake was just incredible. And you were so blessed with a wonderful husband and family. It was a joy to watch this.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thanks so much 😊

[@kellyfoster1931]

Felt so much like sitting and listening to my Grandmother ❤❤❤❤

[@pl6035]

She misses her buddy....sigh. I wish I could buy a granny sweater 😊. She reminds me of my mom.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😀

[@JanOsborne-Sage]

Tipper, Thank you so much for, letting us visit with you and Granny. Such a blessing to still have Granny with us. I really enjoyed hearing her talk about Pap and the family, and her crocheting. Granny certainly does beautiful work. The sweaters in this video are so pretty.🫂😍❤️

[@brendaschenck859]

Love when we get to see & hear Granny…she’s so precious & love seeing her crocheted items. Bless her❤

[@KarenInTx]

Oh my goodness there is that lovely crochet cake. Granny is such a treasure. Mama and my granny used to do their green beans with new potatoes too. I never make them that way, but I do remember they are good. So many precious memories she has. Write them all down so you can tell the stories. Hug her every chance you get.

[@buckydover2892]

I absolutely love granny!!!! She is the BEST!! I love listening to anything she has to say. Y'all sure are lucky to have her. My dad's mom died in 2001. We were expecting to lose her and I still miss her greatly, but I've dealt with it better than losing my mom's mother. We called her 'gran' and she was 82 when she died. She was killed in a car crash in 2017. I've still not gotten over losing her. I guess because I never got to say goodbye to her. She and two other friends always went out to eat together on Saturday evening. They were all life long friends, went to church together, and all had previously lost their husbands. It was always their night together. Our families are very close knit and it seems as though no one has gotten over it. They were all together in one car when they had a minor accident with a truck. No one else was hurt in the wreck and we were told that she had a minor leg injury. She was talking and seemed to have no other injuries. She was flown to the major hospital in Charlotte because of the distance. We thought that she would only be there overnight or something like that. She got to the hospital before we did because of the drive. They immediately put us in a room by ourselves. We were shocked when the doctor, a nurse, and a minister all entered the room and told us that she had died during the flight to the hospital. I don't even remember much about the hour long drive home. It was like I drove home on autopilot. We never really found out what happened and that is why I still haven't been able to move on. I still pick up the phone to call her and I can't bear to erase her message off the answering machine. Hold tight the ones you love, because they can be gone in an instant. Your granny reminds me so much of mine. The videos that she is in make me smile when I think of my 'gran'. I wish the two of them had gotten to meet. They would've become fast friends, I think. Thanks for the video Tipper.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Bucky I'm so sorry-that had to be such a shock to you all! You are right we all need to hold tight the ones we love because we just don't know.

[@notatechie]

Yes she was smiling and both of you were smiling beautifully.

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

😀 Thank you

[@teresabishop132]

I was born on their wedding day! I’m 59 today; How cool! Tell her my prayers are with her. I know she misses her husband ❤️‍🩹

[@CelebratingAppalachia]

Love that! Happy Happy Birthday 😀

[@celtprincess13]

Sending love to Granny--what a sweet, precious lady. I love seeing the neat things she has crocheted.

[@bellesmom238]

Granny reminds me of my momma. My momma and daddy celebrated their 57 Anniversary 5 months before he died. My mom is 80 yrs old. Granny seems to have a gentle kind spirit about her. I am so thankful and blessed to still have my momma. I recently started showing her your videos, she made the Holy Smokes Cake for Easter! It was so good. Now when I go to see her she will ask what new dishes you have made. So I preordered her a cookbook too. We can’t wait til May 3! The sweaters are beautiful!

[@oest2029]

Granny is so cute, a real lady. Reminds me of my granny. My grandparents married within a few months of meeting also just after the war, and were married 64 years. They both passed within a year of one another. I love granny's crocheted cardis also, beautiful. Thanks for bringing us a little segment of her to enjoy here on KZbin.❤️

[@georgiagal9410]

I love granny! We lost my mother in law this past November and she crocheted afghans and prayer shawls. She crocheted my sons blanket for his bed and both of my kids’ baby beds. I know have a treasure trove of beautiful afghans, and quilts! I would LOVE if she had made sweaters and coats. They are beautiful. Cold here in southern VA too.

[@annee810]

[@terryturner2654]

Granny is such an inspiration for all of us, especially those of us who crochet. After watching one of her earlier crochet videos with Corie, I started making some crochet baby blankets to put aside for future great grandchildren. Her crochet work is so beautiful, and I love seeing her latest projects and hearing her talk about them.

[@evagibson3232]
