• General Notes

  Vada's siblings were Reed, Margaret (Maggie) Mae and Dan Lacky Eakin. She had other half siblings, J.C. Eakin, but I have no information on the others.
  Maggie Mae was married to Jake Hall. They had two known children (unsure if or of any others). Their names were Ima and Billy Hall.
  Vada named her first child (my mother), "Margaret", after her sister. "Granny" was an absolutely beautiful woman. She was very humble and honest. I honestly had never heard her say a cuss word until I was an adult. I remember how shocked I was. It wasn't even a real bad word.
  Granny kept busy all the years I knew her. She always had a full line vegetable garden in her back yard. She would make her own soil (compost) from all the dead leaves, grass, or vegetables, etc... . She was also a fine quilter. She would quilt from a quilting device that she devised herself. She was able to give all her grand children and even some great grandchildren, at least one each. She would sew a penny into the corner of her quilt, from the year she completed it.
  A couple of jobs, that I know about, that Granny had in her working years, were "Sonic Drive In" and "Pop's Drive In" both in Roswell, New Mexico.
  There are no words that can sum up Vada Faye. She was very special. I was blessed, by God, to be given her as my grandmother*You can find Granny on "findagrave.com" website*.
  
  To Granny's descendents: I, Gary Wayne Parks, would like to send a greeting and a message of hope for you. Be good to one another, your families and friends and honor your ancestors and your descendents. Know that your fore-mother, Vada Faye Eakin, was loved deeply by her entire family and many many others who knew her.
