My grandmother died today

[Jason L.]

My grandmother died today at the age of 89. She was a pip who fought cancer, twice, was a union strike delegate for the UAW, and was, in general, a tough bird from Jersey City.

I miss her a great deal.

Sorry to hear this xxx

I loved my grandmother too. My thoughts go out to you

 

[Peyton Stafford]

She sounds wonderful. She must have been very proud of you.

 

[Victoria Bastedo]

My sympathies go out to you. She sounds like the end of an era. I'm so glad she was a person who loved and was loved.

 

[Bloo]

Sorry, friend.

She led a meaningful life. I feel you carry a bit of her legacy. My sympathies.

So sorry for your loss. My dad passed two years ago. It's hardest during the holidays as he stayed with us in hawaii often then. Stay strong.

Oh Jason, I am so sorry. I imagine you and she made quite the party whenever you were together. I'd venture a guess that your pippin' spirit was a gift from her. I hope you're okay. Big hugs. xx

 

[Rich.]

Sad news, Jason. I'm sorry, and my thoughts are with you. This evening I'll raise a glass in your grandmother's honour.

 

[KateESal]

What sad news, Jason. Sending hugs xx

So sorry to hear of your loss, Jason. Your grandmother sounds like quite a woman, no doubt with quite a lot of spunk and someone admired by many. She'll always be with you, I'm sure. Treasure her memory. I never knew any of my grandparents, since all four had passed on before I was born, and that's always been a sad void in my life.

 

[Emily]

I'm sorry to hear this Jason, what an extraordinary woman, you were lucky to have each other... Be gentle with yourself

 

[Peyton Stafford]

My parents and theirs, with their siblings, and my younger brother, passed on decades ago. Sorry if my earlier comment sounded heartless, but death is part of life. We are mortals.

So sorry Jason. I know how important grannies can be, mine brought me up and hand-sewed all my dowry when I entered the convent.
