Grandma Morrow 4/2/1932 – 7/31/2010
One of the hardest goodbyes I had when I left on the World Race was saying goodbye to my grandma. It was so hard because I knew it would be the last time I’d see her here on earth. She was diagnosed with cancer a couple years ago, and then this past October it came back and eventually spread throughout her body. She is now totally healed and is worshipping her Father in heaven.
I’ve always lived about a half hour away from my grandma, so I was able to spend lots of time with her. She was always a great example to me of how to show Jesus’ love to anyone and everyone around her. It didn’t matter where we were, even at the mall; she was always on the lookout to share with anyone about Jesus.
We spent time sewing together, watching movies, finding good deals at the store, playing board games (which she let me win most of the timeJ) and laughing lots.
One of my favorite memories is whenever I would spend the night at my grandparent’s house my grandma would always sleep in the guest room with me. They had a trundle bed and she would usually let me sleep on the top and she would sleep on the pullout part of the bed. We would pray together right before bed for everyone else in our family, listen to a music box, and then we held hands as we fell asleep. No matter how old I got, it was always the same routine.J
