November 2, 2017 (All day) Yesterday at around 4pm an angel was born. The greatest woman I've ever known passed away after a brief hospitalization.
My grandmother raised me from a baby, and in her final years we took care of her through alzheimer's and dementia. She fell and broke her femur 6 weeks ago, and it has been downhill ever since. Although we have been gone from Carson for about 10 years, my grandmother was known by many people when I was a child.
