We love you, Granny







Greg's "granny," Norma Alice Rannels, passed away at 6:20pm last night at the age of 88. (We share our anniversary with her birthday.) She fought a hard battle against the cancer which invaded her body several years ago.
What a privilege it was for us to get to spend these last few weeks with her. She was so sweet and maintained her kindness, lively spirit and sense of humor until the very end.
She leaves behind a legacy of 6 children, 21 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.
She will be buried in Maryland next weekend, beside her beloved husband (and as she told me Tuesday night, her buddy), Morris.
We will miss her.

She looks like a wonderful person. I am so sorry for you and your family. Grandmas are the best.
