The Broken Chain

We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name,In life we loved you dearly,in death we do the same.It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone.For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Our Rock of Gibraltar

She had "pretty" writing script. She sang a lot, especially when she was feeling good. She was a happy person in spite of her physical pain felt over many years. She pondered that rock behind her quizzically commenting on its dark streaks and thinking they were getting darker. The rock was a weathered chunk of granite (probably) that had been landscaped around. The fence was built around and over the top of the rock.
Grandma was alert to life and everything around her. And like that rock, she was part of our life, and we molded our lives around her. What a Mom! What a Grandma! What a friend! What a wonderful person!
