On March 2nd, 2010 Grandma Quigg passed away peacefully in her sleep in Sidney, British Columbia. At 89 years old you could say it is somewhat expected, but when that day comes it is always surprisingly unexpected. Just the thought that I can no longer pick up the phone for a quick "hello dear" from my loving Grandma brings tears to my eyes. Her health was good but over the past few months her memory was fading. In January Shanna and I flew to Victoria to visit her, it was only a few days but I am so grateful to have made those last memories with her. We had some good laughs and enjoyed sitting with her and spoiling her with flowers and chocolate. She may not have remembered my name, but the "cute girl in the pink sweater" will do. Next week, Shanna, Danny and I will fly to Victoria to say our last goodbye to our precious Grandma, Etta May Quigg -forever in our hearts.
