By: AprilSaysSo Date: May 9, 2013, 5:15 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. Today would have been her 84th Birthday. Gram Ellie was a great lady - so glad my kids got to meet her and spend time with her (though living far away, it never seems enough). We lost my grandfather - her husband of 50+ years - seven years ago just last week. She'd been sick and suffering with different issues over the years. Dementia took her personality and tweaked it over the last 5 or 6 years, but there were very infrequent glimpses of *her* at times. Over the last 2 or 3 times I had gone to visit, she knew my kids (actually she always knew them) - but didn't know me by name; she always looked at me with an expression like she should know me, but didn't remember the name. Except the last visit about a month and a half ago - about 30 minutes before I was leaving she looked up from the book she was working on with Gracie and said, "You're APRIL" and had such a smile. She had a committed marriage, five daughters, six grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. She had a long life, we owe her much and thank her for all. Thanks for reading :) #Post#: 26548-------------------------------------------------- Re: Please keep April and her family in your prayers...
