I received a phone call from my mother last night just after I went to bed, letting me know that my sweet and amazing grandmother had passed. I knew when I saw her a few weeks ago, that it was most likely the last time we would be together here on earth. While I am so very saddened that she is no longer with us, I rejoice in the fact that she has met her maker and is with so many of her friends and family who have gone before her. We are so very fortunate that we have had her in our lives for so long. I remember when she was in her early 90's and we would joke about her living to be 100. She would always tell me she had no desire to live that long, and not only did she see 100, but died at the age of 103.5. I am truly blessed to have so many sweet memories with her.

| This was the back door to the basement of her house in Rolla. My dad moved into this house when he was 17 and a senior in high school. Thereare so many stories behind that door. |
