God Be With You 'Til We Meet Again


Our beloved Grandma Downey passed peacefully away at 9:40 am this morning. She finally gets to be with her hubby. We are now getting ready for the funeral on Tuesday? morning.

My favorite memory of her was when she and grandpa took me and my siblings to the Ross Park Zoo. Grandpa dropped us off at the top entrance and left to park the car at the lower entrance. This way we could walk down through the zoo and not have to back track. We discovered that the top entrance was closed that day, so we had to find a way to get to the other entrance. We found a way down by climbing down the lava rocks. I can still remember grandma climbing down those rocks in high heels and with grace and style.
