My grandma passed away this evening.

Here is a picture of her in November 2004.

And a picture of her with the grand kids (and some of their kids) on that same day. It was my sister’s wedding day.

This picture is of me with my mother, grandma and great grandma. Four generations. It’s cute because she had her eyes closed. That happened to my grandma in many pictures. It reminds me of when I was little and spent time with her. I always had to wake her when we watched tv together in the evening as she would fall asleep in her rocking chair. “Grandma, wake up, the show is getting good,” I would call out. And she would open her eyes and tell me, “don’t worry, I’m awake, I didn’t miss a thing.”
