Mary (Gramma) Brewer

Farewell to my gramma! She will be very missed. Being the only granddaughter on my mom's side of the family-my gramma and I had a special bond, and for the first time-I am upset and guilty that I live so far away from my family.

I loved that she always had brownies when I got to her house, that her house always ticked from all the clocks, and my grampa was usually working on a jigsaw puzzle. She was a very strong lady to have hid all the pain she was feeling for so long. She was taken by Cancer. Love to all my family on the Cape-I wish I could be there to hug, to remember, to laugh, and to cry together.
