Sally Ryder Cook 1909-2009
Daniel's grandmother's memorial services were yesterday, and they were an amazing tribute to her life. It was a joy to sit and listen to stories about her, her friends, and her family. She was truly a remarkable woman. Today's entry is my top ten tribute to things Sally embodied. To have known her and to call her family is a treasured gift. The Lord definitely was present in her passing. Give thanks to the Lord for He is good, His love endures forever. Sing praise!

This was a very nice post about my grandma. She was always an inspiration to both men and women and she will be missed. I was so glad to have you with me at her funeral and memorial service.
