Sad News

This news is actually about 3 weeks old, and most of you probably already know this. On July 6, 2007 my grandmother (aka "Mom") died. It was sudden and unexpected. She was sassing the Aides there at the nursing home where she lived. The girl turned to get something for her, and when the Aide turned back around....she was gone. Quickly, peacefully, and with no pain. The Doctor said that if you can't pass away in your sleep, a massive heart attack is the next best way to go.

This was a woman who epitomized etiquette. She kept us grandkids entertained with crafts, books and games (Ants in your pants, Hi Ho Cherri-o!). She was a God-fearing, God-loving woman with a sense of humor that fed right into her prankster side. I will miss her greatly.
