For those who did not know Grace
She was Grace.
1. She was a perfectionist.
2. She said “first love then complain”.
3. She said sun should not go down on your anger. She practiced that to perfection.
4. She said what needs to be done must be done.
5. She was a pediatric nurse, a perfect one, hence popular.
6. She prayed to Infant Jesus.
7. She loved her grandchildren (twins), her home, her son, her husband and her daughter in law, in that order. She would have given her life for any one of them.
8. She was a great and award winning cook, imaginative and impulsive.
9. Her Christmas cake was the talk among friends and neighbors.
10. She neither knew nor practiced diplomacy.
11. She bargained and always got a better price.
12. She had the world’s most perfect teeth even at the age of 70.
13. She disliked parties and crowds.
14. She spoke fluent German.
15. She loved plants and trees, planted them wherever. She had no patience for animals. She was scared of dogs.
16. She listened to Ravish Kumar. ( a TV Journalist who specializes in truth, as it is.)
She was a cancer survivor, a proud one.
