Grandma Croft
She was an incredible lady - I know everyone says things like that about Grandmas when they're gone. At 93 we knew she wouldn't be around forever, still losing her last Friday was a heartbreaking shock. She really will be missed by all who knew her. I'm really too sad and speechless to write more than that, so I will borrow some words from Mum & Auntie Sharon's eulogy...
She was someone who looked like a little old lady on the surface but was full of surprises, mischievous twinkly-eyed stories and bold statements which she liked to whip out when she wanted to give you a little shock. She wasn’t a pushover, she was certainly stubborn and opinionated, but also kind, dryly funny, independent, sweet and down to earth.

We all miss her, she was a great Mom and a fantastic Grandma. We have been blessed.
Love always,

Dearest Court! You silly girl! We lifted those words straight off your email and into the eulogy! They ring so true!
Love you,
Mom
I was so happy that the marshmallow brownies and swims to "gramma's cottage" were mentioned....that is what I remember.
