The first time I met Grandma Izzy, she told me I couldn't join the family unless I played Canasta. You better believe I played, and to make it easier, I won. :-) Izzy was an amazing mother and wonderful grandmother. I love Doctor's stories of staying with his grandparent's each summer. Fun stories of stealing chocolates from the "spider room" and gushy cinnamon sugar toast. We stayed with her on the way to and from Boise this summer. She climbed up to the top of the playground at Megaman's request and loaded up the kids with extra coins. She gave Princess a beautiful necklace to wear at her upcoming baptism and shared with Doctor that she didn't think she would be around when we moved back west. Her funeral service was beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with family.
Here is a picture of Izzy's family, one with Doctor and his siblings, and one of the grandkids with a couple of their favorite cousins. (Thanks to my sisters-in-law, I stole these pictures from you.)
