I remember when I found out that Grandma had had a stroke- I could NOT believe it! We had just lost my grandpa a few months before and was not ready to deal with this (but can you ever be ready?) Luckily we were on christmas break, so pretty much everyday we drove to North Carolina to spend the day with her. I will never forget seeing her for the first time after the stroke- She did not look anything like her self. I just turned around walked out and sobbed. A couple weeks in the hospital and then she went home on Hospice. She lived for about another week before being reunited with Grandpa.
I will always remember her personality- she always had a smile on her face. She was the most Godly woman I have ever met. I remember her laugh- won't ever forget that. She would do anything for anybody. At her funeral my uncle gave the eulogy - it was so good (I still need to get a copy of it!) and the church was packed- people were standing up all around because there wasn't enough seats for everyone. After speaking he gave time for people to share memories of Grandma- many people spoke out to what a great person she was.
Jenn, Carol (cousin), and Me w/ Grandma. So glad we have this picture.
