Fresh Living: 10 Fantastic Things About My Grandmother

Wednesday July 1, 2009

holly gma.jpg I was moved by Fresh Living blogger Holly Lebowitz Rossi's post on the passing of her grandmother. What a wonderful way to celebrate the life of a deceased. I think I'm going to make some lists of my own. To get to Holly's blog, click here. She writes:
 
If I had to summarize my grandmother in one word, it would be "fascinating." She never went skydiving or spelunking or anything else that would signify "fascinating" in the big boffo-socko sense, but to me her very being was fascinating.

Just look at her picture - the drape of her skirt, the sparkle in her eye, the ever-so-casual way she holds her sunglasses. Isn't this a woman who should be called "fascinating?" All of our elders, who live in different times and places, should fascinate us, I think. I feel like my Gaga was the fascinating-est of them all, but I hope you're thinking of your fascinating relatives and how much impact they have on your life.
