I remember when i was little
you were always there for me
you loved me more than my mother
and it was all so plain to see

When i was 16 and on my own
everyday you'd clean my home
leaving dinner and a note
which to me was like a poem

Every week i'd cut your grass
never expecting anything
but you'd keep after me
until i'd just give in

Rigging gillnet in your yard
you always made sure i was fed
sometimes my belly was so full
i could hardly count the mesh

coming in from working on the water
i remember your warm caring smile
i'd hear that bright "hi willy"
i knew you loved me like your child

you were the only one to call me willy
without me getting fighting mad
and if you don't beleave me
look around and ask my dad

i mourn not your death for
i know your in heaven above
i mourn that theres a pause
in seeing your unselfish love

I love you Grandmom

So sorry for your loss. She sounds like she was a wonderful
lady. I had a very special grandpa in my life so I know how
much it hurts. You have a very special guardian angel watching
over you now. Take care. flowerforyou :heart:

it amazes me how we share such similar memories with those we love... it shows me that there are so many similarities between humans, yet we're so different. i'm glad you got the chance to reflect on your grandma, and that by doing so, you reminded us all to cherish our loved ones.
