I am confident that Ill never know another in my life quite like Idella. Idella worked for my grandparents for most of her life, but somewhere along the line her identification as employee transformed into family. In my 33 years, I recognized her only as family. And so today, after putting up a long and inspiring fight, a special member of my family passed away, gratefully, in her sleep. She would have been 69 on November 19, a birthday we shared. I will miss her conversations the most - so funny, so insightful, so caring. She taught me so much about loyalty, faith (in people and in God), perseverance. Ive posted a picture of her here taken a few years ago, fittingly, at my familys reunion. Ive also posted a picture of the back of a shirt we had made for the reunion that listed all of our family members. If you look closely, right next to mine, is Idellas. I couldnt be more honored. May she rest in the peace that she deserves.
