I've mentioned her before, here ... i think. her name was Jean, she was 90, had cancer, and was a real spitfire of an old lady. Right around Halloween, she made the decision to move in with her son and daughter in law across town. She'd fallen and was having more difficulty. She had this sweet cat named Missy.
She passed away yesterday evening. The memorial service will be next week.
She was tough, raised her boys mostly on her own after leaving an abusive husband, then found a wonderful man. I can't remember if she married him or not, but she eventually outlived him. She moved in here, right above me, about a week before i moved in. The maintenance guy introduced us as I was moving my stuff in from my van on my first day. She was on her deck. We became friends and remained that way until she passed away.
Her passing is no surprise to me, but it's still tough. She was the closest thing to a grandma I've had in over a decade.
She'll be missed. I just hope Missy will be okay...
