[QUOTE="SteveS, post: 359104, member: 3324"] Never even came close to knowing a great-grandparent ... lost all four of my grandparents before I was 30 ... lost my mom just after I turned 40, then my dad the year I turned 49 ... it was a really stark realization to face being the senior member of my family tree at that age ... in the years since, I can't tell you how many times I wanted to speak with one of my elders, even if it wasn't for advise, though there have been no shortages of occasions when the advise would have been more than welcome ... Count your blessings that you knew her for the years that you did and keep her memory alive, not only in your own life, but in those of others in your family ... it's a rare treasure ... [/QUOTE]
