Grandma Krebel's Bread image

My sister submitted this recipe to her church's cookbook. She got it from a close friend of my mother, who, in turn, got it from her mother-in-law. My Mom says its the best, soft white sandwich bread sh'e ever eaten. I haven't tried it yet, but am putting it here for safekeeping.
