essentialsaltesMy grandmother passed away a couple days ago, some six months or so after grandpa, her husband of 70+ years, preceded her.
She was a warm, kind person, who nevertheless got her way most of the time.
I've got a lifetime of memories, and it would take forever to go through it all. Two that stand out from when I was much younger are
#1) her teaching me the song "Billy Boy" during a road trip somewhere.
#2) me pestering her with facts about the moon (because surely everyone is as interested in astronomy as six-year-old Mike is) and her pestering me back with facts about contract bridge.
