We had a very busy week with the passing and funeral of the kids' Great-Grandma Bert (Steve's grandma). She died shortly before Mother's Day and her funeral took place last Thursday. Steve's grandma was such a special woman and that really showed when nearly the entire family got back to GR to attend the funeral & a family dinner afterward and talked fondly of their favorite Bert memories. I can't believe how much she touched me & also taught me considering that I only met her 6-7 years ago when she was already 85 years old. Her class & impeccable style will always be what I remember most about her.
