So going through the posts I stumbled across this post about my grandmother that had passed away in August of 2011.
The Golden Girl

This is not a post about the TV show The Golden Girls. Although I have seen The Golden Girls a few times, this is more about some one else. But first a little story.
My grandma used to watch the Golden Girls all the time. I watched some of time with her. One year I bought her the first season on DVD so that we could watch it some. She loved it and we watched it a lot of the time. She thought that these four ladies were crazy. But she particularly liked Betty White's character "Rose". There were some episodes where she wouldn't stop laughing at Rose and the things she did or said. Mostly how confused Rose would get, if you have seen the show you know what I mean.
Anyway, those four ladies Bea Arthur, Betty White, Rue McClanahan, and Estelle Getty will always be the Golden Girls in the eyes of America.
But let me introduce you to one Golden Girl..
My grandma. It may seem a little cheesy and what not. But was and is a Golden Girl. But what made her gold??
She was always looking for something that she could do for YOU, not her. She loved her 2 boys to death and would do anything in the world for them. But then again what mother wouldn't do anything for her kids. She would always be ready to cook, clean and help care for myself and my 2 siblings. That makes her gold.
She was always looking for ways to help her friends as well and she had some great ladies in her life that helped her as much that could and she did the same. That makes her gold.
She was a Golden mother, grandma, great-grandma, and friend. Here are some of the words to the opening theme to The Golden Girls and I think they fit my grandma in every way.
Thank you for being a friend
Traveled down the road and back again
