Tonight at around 9:30 my grandmother(who we grew up calling Nanny) passed away. She collapsed while playing cards with her girlfriends yesterday and never recovered. The word that is coming to my mind when I think about her life is committed. She was as committed to her church, her husband, her family and friends as anyone could possibly be. To realize that to equal their marriage mark Alicia and I need to be married 56 more years blows my mind! She is already missed here.
Goodbye Nanny, R.I.P. 2

*hug* thanks for sharing your thoughts. in a few sentences, i got a beautiful picture of who this woman will forever be to you’ns.
i think 6 women have already told me that she was their best friend. i think it is a real tribute that while her own church announced her death on sunday so did the catholic church in her neighborhood. she definitely gave sacrificially, and loved on so many.
