Granny Jewel

Chris's grandma passed last Friday. She was 85 and dealing with some dementia the last 6 months. She had 5 children, at least 15 grandchildren, and ~10 great grandchildren. Too many to count!

We gathered together and her son Jim did a nice talk about her. She had a beautiful graveside setting and we placed a rose and said our goodbyes.

The brittons hosted a lovely lunch and we sat relaxing and sharing memories and stories. All 5 kids hadn't been together in years.

She was a quirky, sassy, and kind woman who was married at 14! She was one of 9 children and loved country music and gambling. The photo with a male is Chris's grandpa who passed at age 47. I can see some resemblance, and Chris's middle name is his first, Lee.
