My Grandma passed away on Memorial Day. She will be missed, but I have enjoyed travelling through memory lane, remembering the kind of person she was.
She loved to laugh. She had a big laugh that could be heard all through the house. She enjoyed people. Being with people, visiting people, talking with people on the phone. She never seemed to run out of things to say. She loved to talk about her day and what was on her schedule. Usually, her schedule included visiting a neighbour or friend in the hospital. My grandpa, who passed away in April 2005, was the exact opposite. He was a quiet fellow who did have much of anything to say and was content to be quiet.
I will continue to add to this post as I have time to jot down my memories.
