LaDonna "Hope" Crawford (Skidmore), is a mother and grandmother, affectionately known by her grands as Nonnie Bunny, who spends her days in Georgetown, Kentucky sharing her love of the Bible, and making her home welcome to friends and family. Her memories in rhyme reflect her fondest memories of her childhood home, growing up on Peter Trace Road in Means, Kentucky. When she is not telling stories to her grandsons on the back porch, she is dreaming of Christmas's both past and present. Her late husband, Lawrence, once said of her, "You keep Christmas well, my dear."
