Today is the day my paternal grandmother was born, in Sweden, in 1882. February 17, 1882.
She died Feb 6, 1981, eleven days before her 99th birthday.
This picture was taken in January 1981 when we visited her in the nursing home and introducted her to Daniel, her newest great-grandchild.
Look at that amazing long hair she had!
Her eyesight was mostly gone and her hearing was quite poor, but her mind was so sharp; as was her sense of humor.
I remember she referred to the "bath" she received at the nursing home as a "lick and a promise." ha ha.
We all loved her very much.
