My wonderful Mita (Grandmother) passed away on Tuesday morning. She was 96 years old (she would have been 97 in February) and lived a good life. She was born and raised in Switzerland and moved to the US to marry my Papa when she was in her 20s. I was blessed to live close to my grandparents all my years growing up and I have so many wonderful memories with them. I will miss her strong accent (Ryan had a hard time understanding her and I would have to translate her English to him) and her beautiful smile but I know she is happy to be reunited with her husband and son who left this earth before her. I can't wait to see many of my family members at her funeral this weekend and reminisce about all the wonderful things we did with Mita and Papa. I love you Mita and I will miss you dearly.
