R.I.P. Nana Speckman

On a sad note, last week my Nana (dad's mother) passed away. She was such a beautiful woman and her birthday would have also been today. She would have turned 88. Even though it was hard to say goodbye, the weekend/week did hold joyous things. The most joyous being able to spend a few days in a western suburb of Chicago with my side of the family. My dad, stepmother, brother and sister-in-law were all in town from out of state. Not to mention aunts, uncles, cousins and their kids that have not met Elyse yet. May my Nana rest in peace with my dear Papa who passed in January 08. Love you, Nana!
