My Grandmother passed away this afternoon after a long illness. She was 82 years old and was born in 1927. My cousin found this old photo a few months ago. It must have been my grandparent's wedding day or shortly thereafter. Marie Theresa Plante was born in Rhode Island. She was part of the Greatest Generation and did her bit by moving to Boston to train as a nurse. In Boston she met my grandfather, who was a sailor stationed in Boston in 1945. I only had one grandmother, as my paternal grandmother died before I was born, but I lacked for nothing in that quarter and I couldn't have picked a better grandmother for myself.
