Last of that generation

At 10pm on Saturday I got a phone call from Mum to say that her mother had been admitted into hospital with what appeared to be complications with her diabetes. Just after 6pm tonight I got another call to say that Gran had passed away early today - the cause of death being attributed to a perforated bowel. No details on when (or what) the final ceremony will be but at this stage I am assuming that it will be a cremation and that it will take place before Christmas.

Hilda Harrison was 93 years old on the 26th of October, almost matching our other grandmother, Margaret Cooper, who died some years ago just days before her 96th birthday. God bless them both.
