Goodbye

    Funny that I was just talking about how much I hate the ending.  My Grandma Herrera passed away early Sunday morning.  As I type this I am flooded with memories of her..........making tortillas, watching sopa operas, learning how to sew, feeding the chickens (and getting attacked by the rooster).  I will miss her so much.  I spent many summers at her house. They tell me that when I was really young I used to hide my shoes so that I would not have to go home. 

     I know that she is in a better place, and that her body works again.  I know  that she will watch over me; that she will always be in my heart.  She was my example for faith in God, strength, resourcefulness.  She raised seven kids and comanded respect even though she was only 4 feet 11 inches tall.  We knew she would keep us in line.  She had a great sense of humor and always taught us about the importance of family.  Much love, Grandma.  I will miss you terribly.
