Grateful for Grandma


On Wednesday, February 11, 2015 Grandma Fitzgerald (101 years old) was welcomed at the feet of Jesus. I have no doubt that He said, "Well done, my good and faithful servant." Words cannot express how thankful I am for her life and example. If only I could be more like Grandma...
She was quite a woman- both quick-witted and a true spitfire. Always doing what she had to do because it needed to be done. From her humble and generous hands she gave away all that she could, made items for all who were in need, and shared a smile and a laugh with all she came into contact with. With the same hands Grandma would slap you for misbehaving and then hug you for obeying. Her genuine love for all and contagious smile made her irresistible and unforgettable. What a blessing it is to experience first hand her legacy!
