I wish I could put into words how it felt to know that my Great Grandmother would not make it to another Christmas. She passed away @ 11pm on 12-24-12.

I am thankfull however, that I received 27 wonderful years with her and I am ever so lucky to have had her in my life! I will never forget her little white house, the aroma of freshly baked cookies and coffee as you walked through the door, and her standing in the kitchen (hair curlers, scarf tied up in her hair, a floral button down shirt, and grey slacks) waiting for a hug and a kiss. She was such a busy-body; always putting everyone else before herself. She was an amazing cook and always said, "I don't have much." But the 8+ seating dinning room table was always filled with enough to feed an army!

Most importantly she was loved by many, and will be dearly missed by all!

In loving Memory Of Esther 1915-2012

Dear Mingle lil Sis I am so sorry for your loss. Sounds like you were so blessed with a wonderful Grandma. Your respectful posts shows some of her greatness lives on in you. Will keep you in my prayers.

Very sorry for the loss of your Great Grandmother

Just before christmas day, too :(. It always feels worse, the closer you are to them. I'm sure she is looking down at you and smiling. Sorry to hear this. I hope you feel better soon.

Prayers to you and to your family. Grandmothers are indeed very special people.

Thank you to every one of you for your kind words!
