The book A Widow's Might written by Carolyn Ellis Lipscomb in 1999 describes the remarkable life of Carolyns mother, Mattie Norman Ellis, who was known as "Mama".
After 13 years of marriage, Mama (age 33) became a widow in 1933 during the Great Depression of the 1930s. With 6 children, no savings, and a meager secretarial salary, Mama managed to keep her family together. She was a mighty widow.

In 1964 Mama visited her oldest son, Howard, who was serving in the military and stationed in Hawaii. Upon arriving in Honolulu, she experienced Polynesian Paralysis.
