Grandma Patten passed away this morning after a battle with dementia, old age, cysts, & tumors.
I was able to see her down in Kansas on Thursday night, and she was quite frail. It was also my first opportunity to say goodbye to a loved one before they passed.
She was 97, so a very full life.
She has 4 great grandchildren with her last name and 7 others.
Not a sad time, but a time to reflect and celebrate a great life. She hang on a lot longer than others thought she would or could (maybe that is where I get it).
The next race is for her
