Margaret Wilson....1903-2008



Charlie's Granny went to be with the Lord this year jsut shy of her 105th birthday. She lived a full life and was dearly loved by her family. We all miss her very much, especially Charlie. She was more than just a grandmother to him, he had the utmost respect and reverence for her. He and his Uncle Jim gave the Eulogy at her services, and Charlie's openning words were, "We all know how much Granny loved cats and horseback riding, and I figure by now she is saddle sore and full of cat hair!" , and at that very moment I think everyone of us there, could remember and envision her once again full of life. For Christmas I had a portrait of one Charlie and his Grandmother's last visits together painted for him by an artist in Montana, Virginia Mlinek. You would never know that she wasn't there. The painting was perfect and now he has a wonderful rememberance of Granny to see everyday!
