“The letters you see (near his elbow) is (the name) ‘Lois’ who was my grammie who passed away,” he [Taylor McDermott] said.

She hated when people felt sorry for her. “Between three jobs and looking in on my grammie, no. But I take pleasure in the simple things—a beautiful sunset, an earnest smile, a man who can cook . . .”
