Grandma Carter

Tuesday evening, I learned that my good friend's grandmother passed away. Normally, I feel sorrow for my friend and think a few thoughts along the lines of, "I wonder what her life was like? How my friend interacted with her? What her legacy will be?" This week, however, my friend Dan Carter's grandma Carter passed away. I had the unspeakable pleasure of getting to know Mimee Carter in the few times our paths crossed--most memorably in the Carter cabin in Interlochen, MI. She cooked food, gave hugs, laughed, and was a grandmother to everyone she met. Her savory food will be missed in many stomachs, and her ceaseless love will be missed in many hearts.
