Unfortunately this week we lost Kerry's grandmother at 88 years old. She was such a kind-hearted and thoughtful lady who will be missed very much. Even though there is not any time that is a good time to lose someone, we know she is much more comfortable now.
Some interesting things about Granny Cherry:
1. She has never driven a car, EVER!
It wasn't because she physical couldn't, she just never learned.
Somehow she found a way to get everywhere she needed to be.

2. Sometime in the last 10 years someone tried to break in to her house. Instead of getting scared, calling the police or her son next door, or hiding under a bed (like I would do) she decided to get a shotgun, go to the window where he was trying to get in and say "I will blow your head off if you don't leave". The guy took off running.
3. She made by far the BEST homemade strawberry jelly that could ever be eaten. Our friends would always ask for some jelly in the jars when that time of year came to make it. I want some right now just talking about it.
She will be missed.
