God bless her. Her generation was raised differently. They lived through very hard times. It seems that most, no matter how much wealth they accumulate in their lifetime, live very modestly. I think they fear the great depression again. I bet she had tons of cash stashed in the mattress too. They don't believe in banks.

Nice story.

Since she didn't want the recognition, they should have kept her donation anonymous.

I'm guessing the woman didn't have any children. Too bad. We need more people with that kind of genetic make up.
