While on our trip back to King J’s hometown, we made a couple of visits to the cemetery where his beloved Grandma is buried. She passed away about two weeks before his oldest daughter (Princess B) was born. One of her middle names was given to her in memory of her Great-Grandmother. Neither Princess E nor I had the opportunity to meet her. We enjoy hearing his tales of her life. Princess E seems to realize she missed the opportunity to meet this special lady.
I put together a small floral arrangement for her grave. He thought she would like the peonies. We drove by her old house, and ate his birthday dinner at the restaurant they frequented when he would come for a visit after he was grown and living in another state.
