We sure love you, Grandma! We had many years of fun before you became so feeble. I love that you danced at my wedding at age 92, five years ago. I love that we’re the “Hot” and “Cold” twins, H=Harriett and C=Carolyn, and that you always signed your letters to me “Your twin”. I love that you were so silly. I love that you were full of love and support for each of us. I love that I have some of your recipes; Mushroom Pot Roast and others are made frequently at our house.
I know you have been greeted by your mother, dad, Grandpa, Aunt Helen and other dear ones that have gone on and we will be together again.
With love,
your twin,
Carolyn
and Kim, Andrew and baby on the way

Although I only knew Harriett through her visits to Shirley in Eugene, I always enjoyed her upbeat attitude and sense of humor. She has left a legacy of wonderful daughters and grandchildren, who will greatly miss her presence on earth.

Grandma’s passing does not quite seem real, her enormous spirit lingers. I will remember her child like enthusiasm for the simple joys in life, a beautiful flower,a hand to hold, a piece of pie and of course jelly beans! That little lady could put away the food! Her last Christmas card raved about a dish I cooked for her years ago. She found the good people, was non-judgemental and said more than once with a twinkle in her eyes, “live and let live”. Thank you for your wisdom and Love, your legacy lives in the hearts of those you touched. I am grateful Denae, Kelsey and Makenna had you in their lives and I got to have a “Grandma” again.
