Grandmommy.

 90 years of beautiful living and loving. Grandmommy, I'm so happy that you finally get to see so many people that you've missed for so long. So, so thankful to have had a grandmother like you.

Rest well, Me-Ma. Yours was a life well lived. May we all be so fortunate.

    From the deck of the Poop,

    Beautiful photo of Ernie and the boys. She was a very special lady . She opened her house and her heart to so many we couldn't began to count.
    Rest in peace Ernie.

    My condolences to you and your family on the loss of your Grandmommy. Obviously she was well-loved and had a long, special life. I still miss my Grandma, more than 20 years later; they're a wonderful gift when the love is strong!
