RIP Grandma.
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."
    To realize the value of nine  months:
    Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.
"Don't piss off old people The older we get, the less 'Life in Prison' is a deterrent."

My wife and I lost all of our parents. Her Dad was the last to go and he was living with us at the time. Great guy! Survived three beach landings in WWII, the first being Normandy. Lost almost all of his Army buddies in those landings. Never talked about it to his kids but he did talk a little bit to me. I never pushed it. Oklahoma farm boy. Family grew cotton. Survived two wives, the second being my wife's Mom. Loved baseball, game shows and grits! She and my step son came home to take him to 4:00 Saturday mass and he had died of a heart attack in his room. But he did sneak in one last bowl of grits!! Made a mess in the kitchen, still cracks me up thinking about that. [cheeky] Greatest generation ever... indeed! [thumbsup] Died just shy of his 89th b-day and right before Thanksgiving 2007. Turkey Day is tough on my wife every year since. Me too, but that's because I'm forced to watch the Cowboy game with my brother-in-law!! [laugh]

My condolences to you and your family. Sounds like she lived a great, long life and had family with her right to the end. Does it get any better? We'll keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

you are in my thoughts..........I am crying a few tears as I write this as my grandparents lived on a farm too, all long since gone. I had such wonderful memories of them, and a time when the world did seem to be a better place. Thank you for bringing them back for me.
Be well
Huggggggs.
