Last night my Grandma Cruickshank passed away. It has been hard letting go but I know that she has gone to a far better place. My grandma has meant so much to me while I have been growing up. I remember when she lived in Canada and I was a little girl we would go up and visit her and just have a ball. She always had a smile on her face and always joked around. I was lucky that she was always in good health and would run and play with us. As I got older I learned more from her then I ever thought one person could teach you. She was the best cook and baker that I have ever known. I got my love of cooking from her, we would spend hours in the kitchen together making food laughing and joking around. When she would live with us for six months I would take her with me everywhere. I loved driving her around and having one-on-one time with her. My grams and I are a lot alike. She always wanted the best for me and I loved spending so much time with her. I have been so blessed to have her in my life. As hard as it is for me to let her go I want the best for her and know that this was her time. Its what she wanted, she has been a widow for almost 30 years so she is now happily reunited with my grandfather. I love her so much!
