My sister scanned these pictures (among others) last year. I've included a smattering-- they focus on Grandma, but some also feature my grandfather, my great grandmothers, my great aunt, my mother, and my uncle. I think these pictures capture something of Grandma's spirit-- that of woman who was nurturing and brought joy to those around her. She was a dear friend, and always up for just about anything. I miss you, Grandma!
