Grandma Great!

This is my grandma and I. I am guessing but I think I was about 2 in this picture and true to her form she always had some kind of yummy treat!


At my wedding:


On Monday April 20 my grandmother or Grandma Great as my kids know her passed away. She was 77 years young and was exactly that- great! She always made sure to call us once a week to check in. she was very thoughtful remembering to have some small something for my half brothers when my brother and i would be receiving something. We were all very much spoiled by her in more ways than just gifts and presents, she always looked on the bright side and saw the best in everyone. We LOVE you Grandma Great!

I'm sad that she had to leave this world sooo young. The older I get the younger that sounds. Cute picture of you and her at your wedding.

Oh sad! I remember when my Nana died. It is sad for the people here on earth but a great day for your Grandma to be going home. Hang in there and have a great time in Cali!
