My first introduction to "Grammie" was when my daughter Chas married her grandson Josh in 2001. After our introduction, she insisted I call her Grammie.
Grammie lit up a room the moment she walked in with her infectious smile; Her quick wit brought much laughter, but most of all she filled a home with love.
My condolences to her family on their loss of one remarkable and an unforgettable woman.
