Least Favorite Moment
About an hour ago the Mister received the call he dreaded all week. His beloved grandma passed away in her bed, surrounded by as many loved ones as the room could hold.
She loved roses and books, but not as much as we loved her. I don’t imagine I will ever drive past the 30 or so heirloom rose bushes that line our driveway without picturing her standing in the thick of them, a huge smile lining her kind face as she called out to me names like Kennedy, Lincoln, Darby, Fire and Ice, Agatha Christie, and countless others I knew I would never remember. No, I knew even then the memory of her laughing waist high in roses would be the thing worth remembering.
The Mister just read this and he said ‘scrabble.’ He wants you to know she loved scrabble, too.
My condonlances to you both. Seems fitting to celebrate her memory more so than mourn her passingm and so you did in your post.
Beautiful post. I will be thinking of your family.
So sorry for your lost- but how wonderful you get to see something so beautiful to remind you of her.

So sorry. Grandmas are the best.

Ditto to what zakary said. I’m so sorry. Sending virtual hugs and love your way.
So sweet. She left behind beautiful memories and love. Thoughts and prayers with you and husband.
So sorry. You have such wonderful memories to hold on to though.
What a nice tribute.
My husband’s grandmother was a master gardener, and when we had our very first tiny patch of ground to call our own, she gave us a Double Delight rose because “no one should ever have to keep house without a rose bush.”
Sorry to hear this news. Awesome grandmothers are the BEST. Sounds like she will be missed a lot – thinking of you all xo
Oh my, I didn’t see this, I am so very sorry…
