Today would have been my grandmother’s 89th birthday. Yet just a week after her 88th birthday the great-grandmother matriarch of our family slipped away peacefully. She was strong-willed, kind, and generous, and gave her grandkids many years of memories in Cape Cod. These photographs (selections from a larger personal project) were taken almost ten years ago, at a time when the reality of change was beginning to compete with the timelessness of the past.
Happy Birthday Gram. We love you. We miss you.
