Grandma Lil

Boy, was my Grandma Lil a special person. My favorite memories of my great grandma are all Up North in Michigan. We used to go up there when I was younger during the summer every year. We would go to her house and the instant we walked in, the smell of sweet cinnamon apple pie would overcome the entire area. It always smelled so good and Grandma Lil would serve us up hot apple pie. That is to this day the only pie I have ever liked and eaten, and probably will be the only pie I like ever. Then, Katy and I would play all afternoon in the great big green backyard. Grandma Lil would sit outside and relax with us for hours. Because I only saw her once a year, these memories were so special and resonated so well. I will never forget how special Grandma Lil made me feel and how happy she always was to see me. She is the most caring and kind-hearted woman I have ever had the privilege to know, and for that I am forever grateful. I love you Grandma Lil.
