Gainy passed away on Friday night, very suddenly, yet also very peacefully. She was in her bed in her fluffy robe with her cat, Burton. Grandan was at City of Hope being transferred to the Californian on Saturday after his surgery, in order to recover before returning home. The past few days have been surreal as none of us can believe she is actually gone. She was an extraordinary women with so much depth, faith, and love...the matriarch of our family. We have all surrounded ourselves with each other to tell stories and memories we have of her. Tears quickly turn into laughs and back again. She is now one of the angels she always believed in and called upon and she will watch over us all. Gainy, we will miss you forever and love you forever.

Your gainy and my mother were best friends in college. she was a bridesmaid in my parents' (gysin) wedding. i have a huge scrapbook of my mother's. i thought of sending it to grace-lynne because it was full of their memories. i will scan a picture from their wedding album and send to you.
ReplyDeleteHillary,
ReplyDeleteOur thoughts are with you. You had such lovely moments with your dear Grandmother. Carson was fortunately to have met his Great-Grandmother.
Love,
Carrie and Kevin
