Celebrating the Life of Great Grandma Vera
Olive and I were able to fly home to celebrate the life of my Grandma, on my mother's side,
Olive's Great Grandma Vera. She was a perfect Great Grandma. She would encourage me when I exercised when I was pregnant, always call to see how Olive was, and sing to her on the phone. Her favorite song she would sing to Olive was "You are My Sunshine".
(Late) Dr. Paul Andrew Kubala and Grandma
Outing with grandma when we were young and celebrating Christmas in HS (below)
Her mind was sharp until the time of her passing.
I was able to see her before she went to heaven to be with Jesus
and Olive got to meet the family in Chicago!
We love you, Grandma.
Thank you for the legacy of love, joy and celebrating life, you left here on earth.
