My brother always creates such great tributes to those that we've loved and lost. Here's a copy of his latest blog entry about an amazing woman ~ our beloved Grandma Mouse. Man was she sharp, witty, hilarious, loving and warm. We will definitely miss her, but I know the angels just got another good one.
We'll miss you...........
My great Auntee Norma (my grandma's sister) quietly joined the angles this past weekend.
She was simply amazing. A sense of humor that would leave you buckled over and you could never leave her presence without a smile.
As kids she was known as "Grandma mouse" because of her vast collection of mouse collectibles and later became "Grandma Pie" to my boys. Her apple pie was simply amazing and Canyon would randomly say "we need to go visit Norma" and I knew he had pie on his mind.
More than a memory of nick knacks or culinary gifts, was that fact that she was the most loving and understanding person you could imagine.
I just love this shot. Its Norma on the left and my Grandma on the right. So much history has been seen and so much love shared through the eyes that are hidden by the Terminator glasses.
I will miss her waves and smile as I drove past while she walked her dog. Or the way that she just "got it." Weather it be a joke or a current event, it was more like you were chatting with a peer than a 90+ year old matriarch of the family.
I tried to keep this as light hearted as I could because she would not want people to be down, but rather have you just smile when memories of her enter your head. We will dearly miss you Grandma Norma. I'm sure she has someone above in stitches as we speak. M
