Great Grandma Bussema

Avery's Great Grandma Bussema, my Grandma passed away Sunday. It was fairly sudden as she was in pretty good health for a 93 year old. She was the last remaining sibling of her 4 brothers and 3 sisters. She was a wife to my Grandpa who passed away just over six months ago, a mother to two sons and a daughter, she had four grandchildren and five great grandchildren (anymore on the way?, anybody?).

I will remember Thanksgiving and Christmas meals at their house when we were little. Grandma could tell you that my favorites of hers were homemade mashed potatoes and applesauce. She was an excellent baker as well. Thankfully my Dad and Cousin Kim took some lessons. Dad has needed a few years practice with cream puffs, he's had some interesting results :)

I was hoping to include some recent pics of Great Grandma with Avery but they must have been taken on someone elses camera.

This is Great Grandma with Clara, Avery's cousin, from a few months ago.



You will be missed Great Grandma.
