My Godmother transition from this earthly realm to the next July 12.  She is going to be missed.  She lived to 107 years old.
She was the last of her generation of 8 brothers and sisters.  They all attended USC and graduated.
My Godmother was journalist and a teacher during her lifetime.
She holds a special place in my heart and I will miss her.

You have our condolences. What a neat story. Could you imagine if kids today had to use that "toe string" method instead of text messaging? I once met a woman who was 101. I could have just sat and listened to her all day. They're gems.

That is a long full life and you were blessed to be a part of it, as she was blessed to have known you.  I'm sorry for your loss and you will meet again.
