It is 13 years ago today that my beloved Grandma Greasley passed away at the age of 87 years old.
Born Lilian Frances Morris, her father was killed in World War One, just short of the Armistice signed on 11 November 1918.
She married my Grandad Greasley, Frank, in 1931, and the following year my mother's sister, Jean was born. My Mam was born to them the year after in March 1933, and they had a son in November 1937. Sadly, he was killed in February 1941, after being run over, and my Grandma never fully recovered from this and held the hurt all throughout her life.
My 'Mamma' died following a short illness on 5 January 1997.
