Grandma's New Shoes Gwendolyn Andrews

"Grandma's New Shoes" is the reflections upon the life of a grandmother who inspired her children, grandchildren and community through her selfless acts of love and kindness. Born during the dark days of segregation in the deep South and little opportunity for women of color, Juanita Edna Stokes, was determined to not let the turbulent times nor the sudden death of her beloved husband stop her from walking in her faith and purpose. Told from the memory of her granddaughter, Reverend Gwendolyn Andrews, "Grandma's New Shoes" is the story of divine love, determination and the staying power of a pair of worn down brown shoes.
