My grandma

She was a remarkable lady beautiful, strong-willed, intelligent, courageous, gifted and very active. She lived through it all, ups and down, tears and laughs. Life was more of tears for her, but she brushed it off with her will to succeed and make it through all odds. She loved us all and had fun with us as well. She was my grandma.

I remember her more since I was brought up by her. Summer vacations, Easter, Christmas, New Year it was all fun at grandma place. I used to wait for the vacation to start to be at her place. It was fun to be at grandma place, her stories, food, outings, cooking sessions, ice creams. She was an all rounder, she played the violin, sang well, excellent cook, reader, excellent knitter.
I used to get her all types of knitting threads and she made me hats, TV covers, table mats and what not. She was on top of all affairs, she used to give me updates on News, TV programs and everything you name it. Even when things were not going right, she had the power to make us all happy, with great food, excellent knitting , joyous shopping trips and great stories. She carried herself with charisma.

Life was not easy for her, after grandpa’s death with 10 children to take care off, but she had the will to succeed. She was strong and the faith kept her going everyday. Not a day passed by without a problem, but she faced it like a rock. She was a remarkable woman and above all a great mom and grandma.

Today she has 18 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren. We all love you grandma! May your soul rest in Peace.
