Violet Odom: 1916 - 2007

My Grandma passed away last week, after a long, joy filled life. She was the Grand Matriarch of my family, watching over her progeny from the warm, comforting center of her southern kitchen. She was compassionate above any other person I have ever met.

When I think of her, I will forever think of Krispy Kreme, Fried Okra, Fried Chicken, Banana Pudding, Ben Franklin's, Church on Sunday and hand written birthday cards.

We all miss you Grandma. Don't worry though, you didn't raise no fools. I think we're in good hands....
