Lottie was not only the name of a famous gambler, but Lottie was also my grandmother’s name. Lottie Woodard (Henry) was born on September 28, 1942 – just eight years after the (in)famous Lottie Deno’s death. While my grandmother was not a famous gambler in Texas, she was the glue that held my family together.
My grandmother was 14 when her mother passed away and she had to take on the role of “mom” in her household and help raise her brothers and sisters. She worked hard everyday to provide for her family. A while later, my mother, aunt, and uncle were born. She continued to work raising them as a single mother.
After my sister and I were born, my grandmother’s role as caretaker did not stop there. Her work ethic and drive kept her going to provide for us and our mother, and inspired me to be the best version of myself and to never settle for less.
After 74 years of life on this earth, my grandmother passed away on March 21, 2016. My entire college career has been dedicated to her, and this falls nothing short of that.

Sadly, The Grand Hotel did not survive the devastating Tombstone AZ fire of May 25, 1882. Above ground, the only things that remained standing were her seven graceful arches and her floor joists on the main level. The rest of the building collapsed into the basement.
Today, the building is home to Big Nose Kate’s Saloon. A number of changes have been made to the original structure since it burned down and has been rebuilt. The bar area, that was originally housed in the basement of the old hotel, is now located on the main level. In the basement is a gift shop, but the tunnel leading to the mine shafts still exists. The saloon holds the Grand Hotel’s original long bar, the only one of which survived the fire of 1882 and is still available for thirsty patrons. The only other long bar that survived the two infernos is in the Bird Cage Theatre, now a museum. Imagine setting your elbows down on the very place that once did the Earps, Doc Holliday, and the Clantons.
Stepping inside the Silver Dollar Saloon saloon is like stepping into the past.
Many features throughout the building are the original pieces. One of the first things that can be seen is the windbreak, which serves a dual purpose. The structure helps keep the harsh Leadville winds and cold weather out. However, it was also used to obstruct the view of drinkers inside. At the time, women of moral standard did not go into such establishments, but if they could see their husbands drinking from the street a verbal lashing was sure to follow. The windbreak makes it impossible to see anything without fully entering the saloon.
