My Grandma Sadie Walker, Grace Street, Byker

My best memories were in Byker and at my grandma's. Her daughter (my mum) was Patricia Walker b. 1944. She lived in Grace Street until she got married. My grandma had a fruit and veg shop very close to the where the Byker Wall is now. Her husband was Johnnie Walker and he was a cobbler. If anybody remembers her or my mum would love to hear. Mum was an only child and died 17 years ago and it would nice to hear anything about her life.
