Thank you to all the wonderful staff at Norwood Crossing in Chicago that cared for her. I especially want to Thank Mike (BoSox) who is the director at the facility that cared for my grandmother. She was more like a mother to me, she raised me for many years while I was in chicago, long night talks, mid morning breakfasts, and especially all the laughing and crying we did together as I grew up.
She was a vibrant woman full of life, but today she is in a better place.
I recieved a phone call around 1pm yesterday, I jumped on the first plane I could get, unfortunatly when I arrived in chicago last night, I was a little to late as she passed at 6:45pm. I went to the home and saw her resting peacefully, God had called her home.
Later today I will go back to the home and begin the process of clearing out her room.
Mike, I just wanted to say thank you, to you and your wonderful staff, my Grandmother really lived out her last few years on this earth in a wonderful place. While I realize it is the staff that has the day to day contact with her and makes the facility go on a daily basis. The staff gets their lead from the top. It starts with you, and for that I thank you, you are a wonderful man.
I hope you have some time today to stop by so I can thank you once again in person.

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I love your descriptions though of your relationship with her. She sounds like a wonderful lady. You must consider yourself blessed to have had her in your life.

Please accept my heartfelt sorrow for you and your family in your grandmother's passing.
It sounds like she was the perfect granny!
A spiritual candle will be lit in memory of your grandmother tomorrow at my church. Would you mind telling me her 1st name? If not, that's okay ... I can just say Felicia's grandmother.
My prayers are especially for you, that God will keep you strong and grant you peace of heart.
God bless you,

Keep the memories - and pass them on.
