Grandma Taylor

In the middle of January my Grandma Taylor was going downhill very quickly. She passed away on January 19th and we had her funeral a week later. 
I have a lot of fond memories of my Grandma. When I was 4 my mom went back to teaching school. My Grandma and Grandpa Taylor took care of my every Monday. I spent many days with them and enjoyed every minute I spent with them. I will always remember eating tuna fish sandwiches and Spaghetti O's in the Spaghetti O bowl. I had my own little spot to eat (with the pull out cutting board as my table) while my Grandparents sat at the bar. It was always fun when Grandma let me sit at the bar with Grandpa. 

Some of my memories include:
·         Painting things Grandpa made in his workshop
·         Picnics
·         The Circle Park
·         Mini golf
·         Speghetti O's
·         Mowing the lawn
·         Dusting her house
·         The Price is Right
·         Dice game
·         Arctic circle ice cream cones
·         Jello 
·         Letters and notes from Grandma
·         Building a snowman with her on one of the few snow days in St. George

     I was blessed to know my Grandparents and to be very close with them. I am grateful that this is not the end, and I will see them both again.
