My Grandmother passed away in 2004, at the age of 90. She has lived a full life, and while we were sad at her passing, it was time.

 

In addition to wonderful memories, and the strength to follow my dreams, she left me a couple of more tangible things. One is these stacking dolls, which I had given her when I went to Leningrad in 1991. The other was a small sum of money.

 

I was in the midst of my burnout/breakdown, and I used the money to book the trip of my dreams. I had to wait until early 2006 to actually take the trip, but it was worth the wait. It was a trip that changed my life, and arguably effected all but two of my remaining events. It will continue to effect my life in ways I can only guess.

 

I hope that wherever she is, she knows the amazing gift that she left me.
