I wonderful old woman died today. She was 93.Here name is Anna She had led a rough life in Poland until her prince charming brought her to America. When they got here they bought a very small house that they raised there 4 kids in. Grandma never wanted to accept all the Fancy amenities of the US. The grew her own food and kept ducks and chicken in the city limits of Portland. The city gave up telling her to stop and let her be.
Grandmas life was dedicated to her children. One has passed he was married and the other was married to his brother OVAY.There were to other children on was a daughter who when she was 18 she moved away and married. Then there was the baby who suffered brain damage at birth. She took care of him until the day she died. She loved him. I worry what will happen.
I cannot remember how many visits I had to grandmas house to look out and she is chasing the boys with the broom the way she shooed the chicks. I have always been an animal lover but this one time she shocked me so much I will never forget. I laugh about it today. All us kids were play in the hard and the goose didn't want us there so I got bit. I went in to show grandma and she picked up an axe and chopped off his head. I felt awful even though his time was short in the back yard anyway.
She never really tried to learn the full English language. I am not sure why but when a 5 foot polish woman comes after you..........run.
I am not writing this in sadness. I have been telling the wonderful stories about my grandma sorta. She never made me feel anything but her grand child. She had a lot of love to share. She lead the life she loved. She will be missed but she has joined her husband, son and my sister in heaven. It wont be long before Polish is the second language in heaven.
I am writing this because I can go to the funeral and I guess I need to say it.
Thanks for listening.
