(celebrating Gradma Mary's bday 2007)Saying goodbye to a loved one is never easy. But losing a Grandma as special as Gramary is tough. I was extremely close with her. Being the oldest of only four grandkids allowed for a lot of quality time with Gramary. We were very similar in nature, and I often heard we looked alike. Gramary taught me a a tremendous amount about life. Not always through words, but through her actions. I've been thinking about this for the past couple of days and the three things I learned the most from Gramary is that family, sense of humor and being true to your values are the most important qualities in life. She didn't preach this to me, she was a living example of them. I will miss her like crazy, but will always smile about all the laughter and giggles we shared together. I could go on and on about my Gramary but I will leave it by saying, she was the strongest, yet most simple woman I've ever known. I am thankful I had a grandmother as special as her.
