A tribute from Meredith and Blair:
"We called her "Meme," she was more than just a grandma; she was a master of creativity and fun. Her intricate cross-stitches were like little masterpieces, each one reflecting her love and patience. To mention just a few of our favorite memories - we loved how she was always supporting my mischief, especially the time I (Meredith) locked my brother and cousin out of her house during a summer stay. While they were outside, I nibbled on her specialty cookies, feeling like the luckiest kid in the world.
Oh, and then there was the famous clothesline game- which let the record show, I (Meredith) always won!
Meme's house was a wonderland of delights and surprises, not least of which was her "biggest invention of all time"-the legendary laundry chute that sent clothes straight down to the laundry room. I thought it was pure magic.
Meme was a boss; she knew how to get things done and made everyone feel special in the process. She was the best grandma ever, and I will deeply miss her presence, laughter, and love."
