For the past year I've been thinking about what I should write on this obituary and I think I finally found the right words. I find it funny that the words loving grandmother was put on here. She really was far from it. I thought we had good times when I was younger but now that I'm much older I realize I was blinded by a lot of it. The first time she ever made a comment to me was when I was ten. Ten years old getting ready for my moms 40th birthday party at her house and I had put my hair up. I thought it was cute but she ripped my hair tie out and proceeded to say my hair up makes me look fat and that my face was too fat. I brushed it off because I thought ok this is my grandma it's fine if she says it. Throughout all the years she was alive she always made a small comment but again it was brushed off, but in 2021 was when I was done with it. My father and I would bring food to her since she couldn't drive. Me being respectful and mature I canceled my plans with my friends to bring her food. Everything was fine that day till a couple weeks after she talked to my mom and told her that when she had seen me, I was way too fat and she was going to bring a scale over to weigh me. What kind of woman says that about her own grandchild? I still think about those words often. Everyone thought she was a saint but she really wasn't. Not even close. She treated my mother horribly for so long because she was jealous. Jealous that my father chose his family over her. I bet if everyone knew the things she said about her own family and not just us but her own sisters it would be very different but I don't think anyone's ready for that conversation. She was a very disgusting human being and had everything coming.
