A week ago today, my mother-in-law died in a local nursing home due to complications from Alzheimer’s disease. She was 84 years old. It was so sad when the disease began to take her mind away from us, but she will always be remembered as a loving wife, mother and grandmother. A mother of five who through may years of her married life held a full-time job, she had plenty of spunk. Her Mexican Cornbread was a family favorite that will always be associated with her.
We have been missing you for so long, but now you are finally gone. Rest in peace dear Oleta.
Always a long goodbye but you must be thankful she is at peace now. Hold onto the happy memories and the corn bread recipe it will always remind you of her .

ReplyDeleteDonna, I am so sorry to hear about your mother-in-law....it is truly a terrible disease...one of my cousins also died of it....I have made some little quilts for Ami Simms and after reading your past two blogs I am going to make some more.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry for your loss. My mother is going through this now and it is so difficult to see someone that I depended on and sought advice from confused and now needing my help. I am so glad you and your family have the good memories.
