Justin's great grandmother, Granny Holder, passed away this week. She was 92, and she was an unbelievably charismatic lady that never met a stranger, even in her late years. She accepted Calee and I as her family immediately the first time Justin took us to meet her 7 years ago.
She also became fast friends with my grandparents when they moved here and loved visiting with them in the time they lived with us. I have thought all week about them greeting her in heaven and her telling them all about Ames and Cohen. =)
She will be greatly missed by many.
