Wild Woman Tribute - Grammy

Anna P. Johnson is actually Scott's paternal grandmother, but I've called her Grammy since I met her almost 16 years ago. Recently she was diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer and she is now under hospice care. She has helped us in many ways, and I want to honor her while she is still with us.
Grammy has seen a lot of joy and pain over her 91+ years, raising 3 children (often without help), working as an elementary teacher and elder caregiver, and being an active member of her church. She loves kids and has guided 3 generations in her own special way. She has a strong faith and likes to help others. Grammy has a ready smile and has kept the same portable "hairstyle" for over 30 years. She is a collector and shopper, and has given dozens of small children happy memories from her toy chest.

She is fiercely independent, and has taken care of herself and others most of her life. Although her health is declining, she continues to be a blessing and hasn't lost her smile despite the pain she is suffering. She is a strong woman and I have been privileged to be part of her family.
