Louin, where she grew up, to celebrate the life of my paternal grandmother, Sidney Laverne Hickman Stevens.
She passed away this Wednesday morning in Mississippi after a long, happy life. She was a wonderful teacher and carried that love of learning and the strictness of the old school ways with her throughout life..even with her grandkids!!
She never let us jump on the beds, but did love to share icecream and Coke with us!
So today, me and the girls shared some vanilla icecream (her favorite) and thought about all the time we had with Grandma..even more blessed that my little girls were able to meet their great Grandma..and even share cake and icecream on her birthday!!
Her fight with Alzheimers was long and hard, for sure on her, but it made it easier for us to say goodbye to her today. Another true test of her personality as she fought for what she wanted!!
We will miss you Grandma and know you are "dancing in Heaven with your Momma and Daddy"...as my Dad put it!
