Prompt: At the start of Part ||, Jackie's family moves to Greenville, South Carolina to live with her grandparents. Describe Jackie's relationship with Grandma Georgiana and Grandpa Gunner
Jackie is not without a father figure, however, as her Grandpa Gunnar comes to assume such a role. While Mary Ann is away in New York preparing things for her children to come and live with her, Jackie and her siblings grow very close to Grandma Georgiana and Grandpa Gunnar. Both grandparents financially support and lovingly care for one another and their grandchildren and their daughter, Mary Ann. They teach their grandchildren the value of hard work and make sure they know they are human beings that are worthy of giving and receiving respect. Grandma Georgiana tends to the spiritual needs of Jackie and her siblings, keeping them attending services at Kingdom Hall, and speaking frequently to them about God and faith. Lessons of faith are deeply absorbed and valued by Jackie and her siblings.
