My Great Grandmother was an amazing person. Such a smart and loving lady. Even at her
age, she had a sharp mind, even when it came to remembering all 12 of her brothers and
sisters! I could remember from a young age going over the apartment to visit. She had a fake
cat in the living room next to the sofa. She would always say that the cat has been waiting to
see me and was wounding where I was.
This past week has been unreal. I know I will always remember her...she was one of the most
loving and amazing great grandmother anyone can have.
And lastly, I want to thank the Arden House, My parents, and my grandparents for taking such
great care of her over the past couple of months. She passed peacefully in her warm bed at
the Arden House. They took such great care of her...I don't know anyone else that'd would've
done so well.
We will always love her and remember her in our hearts... The painting hanging on the wall in
my room was given to me from her and my great grandfather. On the back is taped a photo of
them. It reads "We wish you many years of great health and happiness." This is something I
would be able to remember her by. Which I for sure will...
