I am so sorry for your loss, GG. Recalling the many stories you've shared about the role she played in your life. A sad way to begin the year indeed. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers during the coming days.
I'm sorry Robin. What a neat picture ~ seems to capture what you've told us about her. I know she was so important in your life and I'm sure you enriched hers as well
Gannets are enormous and sleek creamy-white seabirds, with black wingtips, yellow heads and necks, and startlingly outlined eyes. They nest on the rocky cliffs of the European and North American coasts of the North Atlantic and, once grown, spend their days sailing across the ocean. The acrobatics by which they make their living ~ steep climbs into the air and speedy plunges straight into the sea ~ are rivaled only by those of pelicans.
What better metaphor for a sweeping search of one's life choices and opportunities than a gannet extended above the waves, a regal and yet restless surveyor of the vast ocean surface? The gannet reminds us that life is an adventure in both beauty and profound unease, and that the sea itself is limitless in its textures and possibilities.

Me too. Yes, a sad beginning. You can tell a lot by this picture. She looks like a delightful lady. I'm praying right now for you and the family.
I've heard so many wonderful grandmother stories over the years that I have a great deal of respect and admiration for this woman.
I am sad that your year started off this way but know that the last few years have been difficult for her. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
