My beloved Grand M ended her 94 year party with us earlier this week. Though she will be missed, she will never be forgotten!
Grand M, who was far too grand to simply be referred to as "grandma", "granny", or "nanna", was an amazing woman who accomplished so much...accepted to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, modeling for the great House of Worth, serving our great country as a Captain in the Women's Army Corp, working for the Pentagon, acting in community theatres, movies, and television, owning and running the Tailored Tot on 5th Ave in NYC as well as Ross Mode's, a high end women's dress boutique in San Francisco...all on top of a wife and mother.
Well, that was all before I came along. I will always remember my Grand M as a feisty red head that my sister and I so enjoyed to "terrorize" and banter with. I will always value her appreciation of the fabulousness of life, and I will miss her headstrong, larger than life personality, which I so grew to admire.
Grand M, you've taught me taught me so much and I can't wait to see you at the next big party! Cheers!
