Thinking of Grandma

Forget Christmas and New Years, Easter and the 4th of July...my grandmother lived to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. She was so proud of her Irish heritage (her maiden name was McCrandall), one might have thought she belonged in Boston or Chicago, rather than Michigan, where she spent 70 years of her life.

She passed away on January 10, 2006, but every March 17th she is heavy on my mind. In her memory I wish all of you a very happy St. Patrick's Day.
