My grandparents were
very special to me, they raised me from the time I was a
small baby, until I met and married my husband Jerry.
They were already in there 50's when they took me in! I
know that this must have been a great adjustment in their
lives, and I will forever be greatful for the sacrifices
they made to see to it that I had a good home in which to
grow up in. Because of their ages, I was always aware
that they may not always be around for me. My grandmother
was a very dominate person in my life. She could also be
a very loving person! Thanksgiving of 1977 will always be
sad for me. That day my grandmother was supposed to come
to my home for dinner. My very first holiday dinner held
at my home. I was very excited, because I wanted
everything to be special, and to prove that I was not
just a married woman now, but also an adult! When she
didn't call me early as we had planned, I phoned her,
only to find out that she had been rushed to the hospital
with an apparent stroke. I spent the next week at my
grandmothers bedside. She lost her battle on December
3,1977, her 67 th birthday. The next several weeks and
beyond left me feeling numb. Aside from my husband, and 2
year old daughter Angela, she was the most important
person in my life! She was also the first person that I
lost. I still think of her daily,and wonder what she
would think of my life. I like to think that she would be
proud of me!
