my grandma that died years back was great. i wish i could have known her as an adult... she did spoil us, even though my grandfather died long ago and she had no money whatsoever.... she was one of the first people to have open heart surgery in florida in the early 70's and the doc said she had 3 years if she was lucky... she died in 1995. she said she would not let herself die till her youngest daughter got married... she died 5 months after her youngest daughter got married. she had lots of health problems... lung cancer, breast cancer, diabeties, heart disease, she even had a pace maker. she would not sit in a wheelchair or walk with the aid of a walker... strongest woman i ever meet.
