Grandmas hold our tiny hands for just a little while, but our hearts forever. ~Author Unknown
Being that today was the first nice day that we'd had in a week, I was planning on taking some photos of Marcus and blogging the story about how he came to be part of our family. Instead, I'm very sad to share the news of the passing of Mark's maternal grandmother, Julia Andritz.
Grandma Andritz was the quintessential grandma. She lived in a small town. She baked cookies and made nut roll. She loved nothing better than to sit on her porch and watch the world go by. So in a way, we all lost a grandma today. And the world is sadder place for it.

Melissa - thank you for the wonderful tribute to grama andritz - she was a wonderful mother and grandmother and she will be missed by me and by all the people who loved her. A great and graceful woman with so many losses in her life but dealt with each one with grace and wisdom.
Melissa- what a fitting tribute to Grandma. She would have loved seeing you include her in your blog.
She was a very special lady.
My love and condolences to you, MArk and Lauren.

Melissa,
You have a special way of telling a story and this is no exception. I was priviledged to have met Grandma and will remember her in my thoughts and prayers. My deepest condolences to you, Mark and Lauren. Love Always, Dolores
