This is Alexa-Sanchez-M, one of Catherine’s granddaughters speaking. I miss my grandma to death. She was like a second parent to me, always there for us whenever our mothers were busy. She would always think of her family before others; made us cry laughing all the time. I remember a moment whenever she picked us up from school she would always have a smile on her face and even she would attract attention; making friends wherever she went. She deeply cared for all of us, even her friends and the animals. Her most favorite animal of all is King, my beloved Pitbull.
She loved that dog so much and he did too. Everytime I told her about him she would laugh out loud, finding humor in my daily shenanigans with him. From him hogging my bed to him barking at my mother in a demanding manner because the words “Grandma’s house” always triggered an exciting reaction out from him. All my dogs loved my grandma and my aunt but if I had to say it, King loved her more. He was always a baby, wanting to stick around with her. It was adorable.
It’s heartbreaking already just thinking about how hurt my animals would be, how hurt King would be because of how close he was to my grandma. Even for me I feel saddened still but all I can do is carry her memory forever within my spirit and be at peace that she is free.
I still miss her so much though. Love you grandma.
