Laura -- I read the Lives Lived article in this morning's Globe and Mail with great enjoyment, deepened when I got to the end and realized who had written it. What a fine mix of wit, understanding, and admiration! You give an unforgettable picture of your grandmother as a difficult but memorable woman. Congratulations--and thanks for a very satisfying piece of writing.
