… how much I admire Evelyn D. at this moment.

Ross’s grandmother moved out of her house of 56 years today, at the age of 84, to start a new chapter in her life. She has left the rooms into which she moved as a newlywed, where her children grew up, and where she witnessed the marriages of both her daughter and her grandson.

She has taken with her most of her old furniture, several glass jars full of seashells, and a soul full of courage, grace, and a kickass sense of humor. Watch out, Jamaica Plain! My grandmother-in-law is about to rock your world.
