My Grandma...

A year ago my mom called me to tell me that my grandma, Madolin Rebecca Yorks, had passed away. I just wanted to say how thankful I am that I got to spend a lot of time with her the two years that I lived in Philadelphia. She was a pretty stinking amazing woman, that is for sure!


One of my favorite memories of my grandma was the last Christmas that she spent at my parents. She was talking with my brother's mother-in-law (Maria) and I came in with a crazy hair-do.
She said, "Oh Rebecca, take that down. That's crazy."
I said, "Don't worry, Grandma. I don't wear it this way to work or anywhere like that!"
Maria said (sarcastically), "Only on dates, right?"
In all seriousness, my Grandma said, "Oh, is that the problem?!?" :-D

I love Grandma. I will never forget what her voice sounded like, and the way she said turrible and purty. And I think she was right, the hair was definitely the problem. Love ya sis,
