My dad called me tonight with the news that my Grammy died this afternoon. She wasn't feeling good this morning and things went downhill rapidly. They think she had a heart attack. She was 98 years old!! She was an amazing person, a Cody (Buffalo Bill Cody) who had 5 sons, lived through the Depression, was in Pearl Harbor during Pearl Harbor and was sent with her 3 boys away from the island on a ship, lost her husband at age 55, lived her life with dignity and peace, loved the arts, gardening, birds, the ocean, music and her family. She was lucky enough to never be hospitalized for anything except giving birth and stayed in her own home until today. My dad said she was ready to go and is now finally with her husband and oldest son, can see well and hear well again. She had a great chuckle and snort, baked chocolate birthday cakes like nobody else and oh, how I will miss her.
