Local family appreciates grandparent year-round

September is National Grandparents Appreciation Month and one local family says their lives are richer and brighter for having a beloved gradparent living with them.

Casey and Robbie Smith are proud to have Robbie’s grandmother, Yvonne Murphy, living with them full time.

“She’s a lot of fun. She likes to cut up and you don’t have to be a certain way around her,” says Casey Smith. “It is nice to just come home and eat together and chat and be with each other.”
