Mrs. Bessie Hotchkiss ( Wakeley ) is my Great Grandmother. Every Sunday we went down to Beacon Falls, Connecticut to see her and my Great Aunt Lil. She will take out Balloons to blow up with her helium tank for all of her Great Grandchildren to play with. She would take out a leaf for her dining room table and put more chairs on around it. If the table wasn't big enough then get another leaf for it. No one left her place hunger. It was always nice to go and see her. While I was growing up I was told about her side of the Family, Wish that I find out more. She passed away when before I was 12 years old.
