Happy Mothers Day in Heaven Grandma!

I also want to recognize all the Grand Ma's on Mother's Day. Your mothers mother is usually somebody you are really close to. The person you can run to when your Mom was pissed and will protect you.

We all miss our Grandma's. On this day more than most others.

You in the upper right?

No that is Daddio.

When he was in his thirties.

Wow, that's uncanny. Are you in this shot? Or are those uncles?

Mama is the beehive if I remember correctly. I LOVE this photo. And, Trooper is spitting image of his old man.

That is a photo of my mothers family in about 1968.

Top row starts with Aunt Marie who was married to my Uncle Angelo who was my mothers younger brother who was standing next to her. Then Daddio and my Mom with the Beehive right in front of him.

Below her was my Aunt Rosie who is the baby and my mothers youngest sister and the only other one still alive other than my Mom and Aunt Marie.

Then Grandma in the middle and my Uncle V the oldest sibling at the far end. He died last year at age 90.

My Mom is now the spitting image of Grandma. She looked just like that on Mothers Day.

I have managed to outlive my Dad. Everyday I set a new record for longevity.

I feel like Sammy Sosa or something.

And I didn't even use steroids.
