Mary Ellen Davis De Vore

Davis, Carson and Great Grandma
One month after having a baby is not the best picture to have taken of yourself...but I am glad we did. This is the last time I saw my grandmother, May 2006. And this morning my grandmother (my Dad's mom) passed away. She had said she was ready to go and she was a determined woman. It is so strange to think that we no longer have grandparents. End of a generation. I am so sad that she never got to meet Harper, but so glad that she meet my boys.

I am going to miss her unexpected phone calls, they always began the same way: "Hello Nickel, this is your old grandmother". Our conversations generally centered around how she thought my kids looked like her. Ironic since she is a tiny petite red head. When Harper was born with red hair though she was certain she looked the most like her.

She will be missed.
