Lots of family memories, many but, not really one that stands out individually, to comment here. Spent lots of time with her at Grandmas house, and at our huge family dinners. She always had a smile, was joking & teasing us about something. Talked about her kids a lot, telling stories about their adventures. She was proud of her children.
