By Sandy Wells She calls herself "just a housewife." Workhorse would be a better word. Today, in the immaculate brick home she built in 2000, surrounded by every modern amenity, 98-year-old Veval Newhouse reflects on a rugged time when survival hinged on daily labor that would dismay and confound pampered millennials.
