Helen

My grandmother Helen died this morning. It was a long time coming, so although there is a sadness, it was expected sooner or later, and we rejoice that she will be freed from a body that caused her pain and a mind robbed by alzhiemers.

My memories of my grandmother in my earlier years was that she was always hospitable, there was ALWAYS someone visiting grandma and grandpa. And she always made lemonade and ALWAYS had icecream in the freezer for us. It has been a great many years since those memories, as she has been deteriorating before our eyes for some years now, but the legacy she has passed on, of being hospitable, beleiving in education and being proud of being a women and trusting God.
