A terrible loss


Yesterday we found out that Andy's grandmother/Talli's Mom passed away. I think it was very shocking news for all of us. We went down to see Midge in March while visiting Andy's parents and it was a great visit. We got to see 4 generations of the family together and Murdoch loved all of the attention she gave him.
She was a very independent and with it. She would email me often with updates of what she was doing, she checked the blog, she was very involved with the community and she was a very accomplished painter. She was planning on coming up to the area in August for a visit so we are really going to miss her next month and the many months to come.
I didn't know here that well so if you would like to post a comment with some memories that you have they will be kept for a later date for others to read and hopefully it will bring a smile to their face.
We will miss you Midge!

Thanks, Sarah. She thought very highly of you and was very happy to have you in the family. Mum enjoyed being able to have Thanksgiving with you and Andy and meeting you for the dinners in Rockport. She appreciated your attention in the e-mails and blogs. She loved your Christmas card with Murdoch and Deucey and kept it on the coffee table as her "brag book"! Having another boy in the family was a delight to her. She loved seeing Murdoch grow on the blog with his red hair and curls. She loved having us all together for the luncheon in Ft. Pierce - her only regret was that she didn't get to hold him... something we didn't think about that day. Thank you so much for the effort to get down to us and then to her in Vero.

Oh goodness! I'm so sorry I didn't read this earlier. Warm thoughts to Talli and everyone else.
