Bingo, wrestling, gardening, cats, casino, fashion, elegance, patience and family- these are the words that remind me of my grandmom. She was a daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother & friend. She was a walking piece of history and lived through things that are hard for me to even begin to imagine. She raised her kids through tough times in America, but she always lived life to the fullest!...and was always on the go! She enjoyed time spent with family, always cooking and feeding anyone who was hungry-even her stray little friends. I am sure each of us here today has something to share on how my grandmother has touched their life in some way.
Our family is a tree with all the branches & leaves leading back to a strong sturdy woman with roots deep in the ground.
It's difficult to imagine life without her, the foundation that gave us all life.
Her body may be gone, but she lives on in the deepest fiber of our being. Her life, blood & memory live on in us, her children & grandchildren.
We are her legacy & lifes work & I am proud & grateful everyday to belong to such a beautiful lady.
