Grandma Kate
Friday night, my Grandmother Kate Liloia suffered from a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital near my uncles' home in NJ. She seemed to have recovered well and was eating, sitting up and chatting Saturday night in her hospital bed. According to the doctors, they hadn't ever seen someone recover from a heart attack like that so quickly.
At some point early Sunday morning without any other signs of distress, she laid down, went to sleep and quietly passed away.
Grandma Kate was a plain spoken, sassy woman who loved stirring the pot and riling people up just to see them spin. Her knack for finding a four-leaf clover in a large field in seconds was uncanny, and to this day unexplainable. We will miss you Grandma.

My deepest sympathies to you....
My own grandma Irene was one of the most important people in my life.. She has been gone a very long time, and I still miss her very much...
remember though..
Don't Weep for Me
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sun on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in morning's hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand by my grave and cry,
I am not there;
I did not die.
- Mary Frye
