I'm Grateful "My Muh" Has Departed



Being grateful she's not suffering doesn't make coping easier it just puts the situation in perspective...

A little over 88 years ago He created Mary Louise Ashburn and 1 day ago He decided to abolish the flesh  and bones of Mary Louise Galloway. While Muh (as she was called by everyone that was graced with her presence) is physically gone she remains here through us, her family, friends and loved ones. 

I've never heard anything negative about my grandmother nor have I ever heard her speak unkind of anyone. Although her children and some grandchildren will tell you she showed no mercy when it came to discipline, they appreciated it because they knew it was out of love.We all spoiled Muh because Muh spoiled us all.  We have stories to last a lifetime and memories to match, physical characteristics and mannerisms that scream "Galloway" wherever we choose to roam. This is where the G-way clan  started but definitely not where it ends. 

Her favorite word and inspiration for one of my tattoos "Grateful", that was the answer you heard  when you asked "how she was doing"..... Everybody is thankful through the good times but it takes a special person to be grateful during troubled times....... I'm thankful she was apart of my life & I'm grateful she is now and forever more at peace... with her man ( as Della says)

Random but this has made me want a family of my own :/
