Grandma Turns Husband's Hawaiian Shirts Into Cushions For Grandkids To Cherish

A grandma came up with a beautiful gesture for her children and grandchildren by turned her late husband's prized Hawaiian shirt collection into memory pillows. Randall "Randy" Hardin Sr., 72, was renowned for wearing Hawaiian shirts, and over the years, his family estimates Randy amassed a collection of more than 50. Hawaii held a special place in Randy's heart, as he and his wife, Marion, 79, from Commercial Point, Ohio, spent their honeymoon in Kona, where Randy purchased his first shirt. Having received several compliments on that shirt, Randy saw the garment as a conversation started, and over time his family started seeing him in nothing but such eye-catching garments. During Randy's lifetime, he and Marion returned to Kona 25 times, allowing Randy to build his collection by purchasing new shirts every time. But after Randy's passing, Marion wondered what to do with her late husband's jazzy collection. Given that she enjoys quilting, Marion searched Pinterest and came up with the idea of turning Randy's shirts into memory pillows – one for each child and grandchild – so they had something to remember her husband with.
