"Our beloved 'Big Mama' (my maternal grandmother) had a devastating stroke in mid-April and died on July 6.To quote Poppa in this year's Christmas letter, 'We've had some extraordinary years, all happy, but some not so much as others. This year has been one of the not-so-much-as others.'"
Poppa was right. This year was definitely one of the not-so-much-as-others, but we have lived each day of it surrounded by the love and support of our family and friends. Though we will certainly miss Poppa today, we plan to have a very Merry Christmas - just as he would want all of us to do!
