A loving tribute to a grandma like no other.

My Grandma Norah had a profound and everlasting effect on the lives of all who knew her, most of all mine. Grandma often knew how I was feeling without me ever having to speak a word. We shared a special connection and would complete each other’s thoughts and finish each other’s sentences. I could approach her about anything, at anytime, and she never judged or criticized. For all outward appearances, she was like most kindly granny types, affectionate, soft-hearted and easygoing. Yet, she had some little quirks that made her unique.

Grandma loved her family and enjoyed spending time with us at barbecues, birthday parties and family dinners. As a wee lass, I recall the excitement I felt whenever I learned we were going to visit Grandma. The anticipation of getting to spend time with her was nearly too much for me, and my parents, to handle.
