Today, I said goodbye to the most remarkable woman I’ve ever known—my grandmother. She didn’t just live through a century; she embodied it. Her life was a testament to resilience, love, and the wisdom that only time can bring. For over 100 years, she witnessed the world transform and left her mark on everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. To me, she wasn’t just my grandmother; she was a guiding force, a safe haven, and the heart of our family. Her stories, her kindness, and her unwavering strength will forever be etched in my soul. Though it breaks my heart to say goodbye, I am endlessly grateful for the time I had with her and the legacy she leaves behind. Rest in peace, Appamma. You will be missed beyond words.
