"Great Grandma - Have a good time in Heaven"
No joke....That was what Maddie wrote in her 2009 Yearbook from School last night...this is in response to the news that Grandma Cook had passed away. We got the call around 3:15 that quietly and peacefully, Grandma took her last breath and moved on to much better place. Steph and I were recalling that it was Kenzie's birthday party just 4 short months ago, where Grandma was complaining of being short of breath. The next week she was diagnosed with lung cancer, and further test revealed that cancer was spreading, and quickly. Since then, we have tried to enjoy as many memories as possible. The biggest being her 85th birthday party in early May. It was something that she desperately wanted to make, and she did. Below is a picture from the party, when we were all singing Happy Birthday to her. We will miss you Grandma!

Thanks for posting that photo of Mom Mike-for it brings back the memory of a wonderful day!It's been a privilege and a blessing to have taken care of her these last 4 months.It gave me time to tell her how much she was loved and what she meant to me and all of us.She was always so proud of her family-and felt so blessed to have four great-grandchildren who I hope will remember her.Gods peace mom.
Nice post Mike...and love your mom's comment, too. Thinking of you guys! Jenn
