Ellen Price

Yesterday afternoon, I received a phone call that my sweet Grandma Price had passed. She was 96 years old! She was a very special lady. The things I will remember about Grandma Ellen...
  • Teaching me to Crochet (i didn't get very far with that one)
  • Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup (THE BEST)
  • Sharing a Birthday with me (well 2 days apart but we liked to celebrate together)
  • Winter visits every year all the way from Wyoming
  • Camping together
  • Raisin filled cookies and Minced Meat Pie (actually...neither of my favs but always a special treat for my dad)

She always taught...

  • Kindness
  • Service
  • Strength
  • Patience
  • Love

I will always cherish my time spent with my Grandma in my younger years. I hope I can pass on her amazing example to my posterity.
