DALLAS -- Raleigh Dewan’s grandmother was a true Southern belle.
For family dinners, Grand June would get out the fine china and cook lavish meals of fried chicken with spiced grits, brown gravy and yeast rolls that took hours to rise, but that Dewan said came out “insanely” beautiful.
When Grand June developed Parkinson’s disease, Dewan watched as hand tremors made it difficult for her to hold a spoon and share meals with her family. Parkinson’s was stealing away his grandmother’s agency.
