Grandma Evans


My sweet little Grandma Evans passed away this morning at about 5:30 in the morning. She had a hard time leaving this world, but I think Grandpa helped to pull her along. It is so crazy that all of my Grandparents are gone now... I have so so many memories with my Grandma and Grandpa Evans and I am so happy that they can be together again. I love them so so much! I felt so bad for not being able to say goodbye to Grandpa Evans, that I made sure I was there to say goodbye to my Grandma and tell her how much I love her. My Grandma's house was always a place of refuge for me. I went there whenever I was real sad, and she would make me feel so much better.
A few memories... When I was little I used to get so mad that other people called her Grandma, because I thought that she was only my Grandma.
-I remember going to her house for lunch sometimes and she would make the best sandwiches with thick butter on the bread and vienna sausages ( it might not sound good, but I loved it!)
-I remember Mrs. Davis locking me out of her classroom in the 7th grade because I was late for a test, I was supposed to go to the principals office, but instead went crying to Grandma. She was so mad at that teacher she about marched up to the school herself. Instead she called my Mom and told her she ought to tell that teacher how it is!
-I remember so many times having sunburns and Grandma Evans putting her Aloe from her Aloe Vera plant on me, and it would feel so much better. She could fix any hurt and heal any sickness. When I got pneumonia in high school and I was sick as a dog for weeks. In fact I lost tons of weight because I couldn't eat a thing. My Dad and Mom went on a date one night and left Adam and I with Grandma Evans so she could tend my sickly self. Grandma made me some of her famous homemade chicken noodle soup and I swear after that I was cured!
-She always wanted to take care of everyone around her and was the sweetest Perfect Grandma. I will miss her so so much, but I am so thankful that she is no longer in pain, that she can think perfectly and clearly, and that she is reunited with her loved ones who have passed on before her.
