She was born Oct 11, 1916 in Middletown, Ohio to Charles and Nellie Ruth Staples Acra. Second of seven children. I always knew her as Grandma Lou and until I was 8 or 9, I did not know she was a step grandma. Though she was not my biological grandmother, I always thought of her as such since she married my grandpa before I was born. She sent letters often (always typed). She was one of the nicest people you'd meet. She was married in Sep. 1934 to Milan Alexander and had a son, James Alexander (last known to me living in Virginia in 2007), from that marriage. They were divorced in 1947. She married my Grandpa Ross Guillet April 24, 1964
