Mrs. Granade was graduated from Howard College (Samford University), Birmingham, AL and attended Judson College, Marion, AL and The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY. This bohemian soul enshrouded in the body of a Baptist wife thought of herself as part gypsy, for she loved travel and its introduction to exotic places and people. An indi erent cook and housekeeper, she loved all of the arts but especially music, theatre, literature, and painting. While the arts and the tenets of her faith fed her soul, her passions were supporting her ministry to his parishioners (whether or not those in need belonged to whatever church he pastored), supporting Baptist missions worldwide, and supporting religious and secular education.

Her desire to be useful and her vision and organizational ability brought her to leadership in the Evergreen Study drive to establish a public library there, to local and state Missionary Union, to ver two decades of conferences for wives at Shocco Springs Conference Center, and to more than two decades teaching Sunday School at Montgomery First Baptist Church. Her gifts of hospitality and of boundless optimism and her understanding that information about others lives, plentiful and readily available to a wife, were calls to rayer and action rather than salacious tidbits to serve as currency in the social marketplace, owered the life of a consummate wife of her generation. Her ability to live life graciously and to put a wide range of people she encountered at their ease paved the way or her and her ective service in the work. In lieu of owers, memorials can be made to The Sam and Rubi- law Granade Memorial Scholarship Fund of The Baptist Foundation of AL, P. O.
