When I think of my Granny, the one thing that comes to mind is butterflies. She loved butterflies. Full of color and full of life, butterflies show the transforming power found in nature. Granny herself knew how to turn less than desirable situations into something beautiful. Just like a butterfly, her life was vibrant and full of hope. She always knew how to find the good in circumstances. Granny died today, and I have no doubt that she has gone to a better place. Her final days are marked by a sweet home coming to be in the presence of the Lord.
Granny leaves a strong legacy of many children, grand children and great grand children who love her very much. She taught us to value relationship and enjoy life. A beautiful person, she will be missed. Soon the family will all gather in Memphis to celebrate her life. I hope it is a joyous occasion because that is what she would have wanted.
