If My Grandma Had A Blog

My grandmother died in 2005. She did not own a computer. I think she could have mastered some computer skills, but she had plenty of interests and activities and friends to keep her engaged in the world. She wrote things down, not fictional stories but events of her life, both past and present. After she died, I was given the honor of keeping some of her writings. I thought starting a blog with them might be fun. I hope readers will find it enjoyable. Thanks for stopping by.

Not a happy time

"September 18, 1993: Pinochle at Marie H.'s.
September 30, 1993: Irene died.
October 1, 1993: Raymond and Marina came.
October 2, 1993: Nancy, Tom and Merilyn came.
October 4, 1993: Irene's funeral."

Unlike several occasions Grandma has mentioned, I do remember the events surrounding these particular days. My post title says this was not a happy time, but I imagine it was for Aunt Irene; to be free of the constraints on her body and joyful spirit. She was freed from all that.

It just doesn't seem possible that is 19 years since Aunt Irene died.
