*sigh* I just talked to my mom. She's been calling me all weekend, I thought she was calling me to return a silly message that I left her on Friday night...but she wasn't calling for that.

She was calling to let me know that Mama Edna died.

Mama Edna is Mike's grandmother, so basically, a distant step relative, but she was the sweetest little old lady you could ever hope to meet. She had a really hard North Carolina accent and always wore little sparkly barrettes in her hair.

From what my mom told me, it was a switch in some medication that was just too much for her system to take, and she just shut down. She was in her nineties and I knew she wasn't really in the best of health but I didn't realize she was that frail. She was in PA at Christmas and didn't seem to be doing badly. The funeral is tomorrow.

I will miss her.

I'm sorry for your loss. Another friend of mine's grandma passed, also in her 90's. You know they lived a good, long life, but it's still sad. My condolences to you and your family.
