| I know its late, but I just wanted to say my grandmother was a humanitarian and a lover of cats. She was a fighter and after losing her youngest daughter and less than a year later losing her husband who apparently lost his pension right before he died serving many years for the city of Pittsfields" Sanitation department she had to fend for herself and take care of her deceased daughter's youngest child/baby she made the decision that I myself as a person couldn't make. She was lonely, loved to talk and loved her Werthers Original along with her green peppers and ranch dressing as well as her circus peanuts and making ham and cabbage. She loved watching soap operas and visiting with her sister. She had a humorous and sarcastic personality. She loved her youngest son Tommy and had a great respect for her oldest Steve.She would let you tell her a story but she would already know the real truth. She loved her whole family very much. I wish the best for her in the life after. | | from: Vanessa Sidway | on: 01-12-2011 |
