I have LOTS of memories I could share but here are probably my favorite...The look on her face when dad and I showed up at 1am in the morning on our motorcycles. She answered the door while we had on our cold weather gear on and she just about FREAKED OUT! - Grandpa had forgotten we were coming and didn't leave the door unlocked or a key for us. Then there was the time dad and I came up unannounced (we did that a lot, but of course someone always knew..usually Seana). We showed up at Seana's house and she took us over. Dad went in first while I stayed in the car in the driveway. He surprised her but the best reaction came with I walked in. She had her back turned as I came in. Once she turned around, she jumped...almost came out of her shoes. Then there was the time, Jeannette and I came up for a visit and we went to the falls. I wanted a picture of me picking her up so she was more then willing....silly grandma - I am, after all my father's son...ha ha. I took her to the railing and she just screamed! (I HAVE the picture to prove it!). However, my favorite memory of her was she ALWAYS was prepared to make my chocolate-banana-cream (and later, strawberries) cake. Never once did she EVER forget! I don't think I will EVER be able to eat one of these cakes again. I sure miss her but I know she's in a good place and is player Yahtzee or Uno with her new friends!
