The prompt for this week at Julia’s place is titled Legacy. It does not have to contain the word, but needs to be about the theme of legacy. Below you will find mine. I dedicate it to my Grandma Evenhouse.
My grandmother passed nearly two years ago. Even at the end she remained very sharp and waited until my brother flew in from Florida to depart this world.
I write this because she always encouraged me in my writing. Every time I saw her she asked me how things were. One Christmas she gave me a little notebook because she said I reminded her of my grandfather who had passed a few years before.
If she were here now I would introduce her to my daughter Clara and proudly tell her they share the same middle name: Mae.
Cheers,
Bob
Nicely done and an original take on the prompt – the legacy of a name.
Thanks Sandra! And thank you for stopping by.
Ah bless you Bob, I can tell her much you loved her.
Yes indeed Gilly. She was just like a kind and witty grandmother from a novel. Only, very real.
