A Role Model

On January 12,2014

we lost an amazing woman.

Vera McGregor Tidmarsh

At 95, she was my Grandmother and my daughters

Great Grandmother! And Great she was!

Vivacious, poised, powerful, loving, passionate, stylish and

extremely creative, just to mention a few of her characteristics.

She thought nothing about sewing the bridesmaids dresses

and Bridal dress for her daughter's wedding, writing hundreds of editorials for 

the city paper, acting as lead in many a play, or moving 

 from Country to Country to Country, all of her homes

contents included, creating a lovely home for her

 family at every stop. Always creating a

 beautiful life no matter what the

 conditions or circumstances.

A true Role Model.

She will be sadly missed

and fondly remembered.

*******************************************

After the loss of
a loved one, you realize
you must make the
most of each and every day.
Each and every moment
holds the opportunity
for special memories.

This year I am going

to make the most of 

every moment, and not

wait for occasions.

I am going to say the
things I have been meaning
to say.

I am going to try new 'things',

like recipes, colors

 and ideas.

I am going to embrace the fact

that I too, have

collections.

;)

I am going to take the

time to do things I

love.

I wish you a year

that is packed full with

the things you love.

A collection of memories,

among other things.

And days that are 

filled with love and laughter.
