Requiscat in Pacem
Grandmothers, at least from my generation, were just so bad ass, they came from the Depression Era and put up with -0- BS.
Going to her home for her Bday and talking with her, I'm sure no one going to Vatican City revered the Pope as much as I revered and still do my Grand Mother.
I truly hope, today's generation never really loses that sort of respect for Big Momma.
Though us kids always called her by her last name with Grandmother in front of it, even the wildest of her grand children would keep the younger kids in line when mentioning her
I adored mine too and her birthday will be the 17th. A resilient, tiny in physical and big in spirit Saggie who told it as it is. She spoke , you listened and said yes Grandma M.
Also a depression baby, she taught us girls to garden, bake, sew and be quiet in Church..... More importantly, to love thes e gifts of life ...
I put my Christmas tree up or add a special ornament the 17th to honor her love for life, me and her Lord.

When my Saggie gift o' gab was going to far...she used to give me a look and put up a fist and I'd be like..."shut up now"
She was the only one who could ever do that
Padre, indeed! One stern look from Granny puckered my tummy and Ms Aqua knew nuff said.
Did you celebrate together?
That must make you doubly miss her.

Oh my yes, what is really cool looking back is she'd slip me a couple of dollars when we'd visit her, or she'd visit us
I'd take it and go buy comic books that I still have today.
We'd go over there and the whole clan would get together and celebrate, Grand Mother B was quite the hub of the various generations
