Our Paternal Grandma, Helen Cuddy Jordan

I remember hearing this story many, many years ago. When Grandma Helen and Pappy lived in Los Angeles, sometime around the 50's she had gone to the local liquor store (no 7-11's in those days). Not necessarily for liquor, probably cigarettes. At some point during her visit there, a thief wanna be tried to get her purse and also hold up the store. She got so mad she started hitting him over the head with her purse and he finally just ran away. Now, I would really like to believe this to be true, so if there is another version...wellllll, I think mine is better!
