Grandma Whiting



Grandma Whiting











Grandma Whiting and all her Great Grankids. What a legacy to be proud of.







Grandma and me at my wedding. Isn;t she just a classy looking lady.












Just a quick update on her. She fell and broke her hip on Mon 18 of Aug night. She had surgery on tues afternoon. She has not really woken up since then.
When I went to see her today she was pretty out of it. She kinda started to wake up. So I started telling her what I did yesterday. I bottled 31 pints of salsa. I also was trying to teach Kelty how to peel the tomatoes. When I told her this she opened her eyes and looked at me and said "oh that is good." Then she went back to her coma like sleep. I feel so honored that she woke up long enough to talk to me one last time.
I think my grandma whiting is the neatest person. I have always looked up to her. Her work ethic is amazing always up early and doing more than I do in a week. And she does it before breakfast. She is one amazing women. She has lived alone for the last 25 years since my grandpa died. She has done it with such class. Asking for very little but giving so much.
I feel that the end for her is very near. She is one special person. I love you grandma. Thanks for the legacy that you left. You left big shoes to fill but thanks for your influence I feel ready to do my best to try and live up to that legacy.

You captured your feelings very well. I had similar feelings when my Grandma died. Your Grandma has inspired you and loved you. It is very special that you know her so well and will have so many wonderful memories of her. I love that she spoke to you like that. I hope she gets well soon, unless it is her time to go. Keep us "posted". love you!
