It’s been a little over a year since my Oma, grandmother on my dad’s side, passed away. She was such a huge part of my life, all my grandparents were. It’s a bit lonelier in the world now that they’ve all passed, but I’m a better person because I was able to know and spend so much time with them. Also, I feel very blessed to know all of Brent’s grandparents who are still living except his maternal grandmother, Nanny.
My Oma Wilma was a beautiful, hard working woman who never failed to impress with her ease for conversation. She always made you feel loved and well taken care of. She lived to be 90 years old and lived six years alone after my Papa Jack passed.
