Cheers.
Just to illustrate how freakin' sweet my Grandma was, one of her requests for her funeral was to pop open a 40 at the gravesite and have one last beer for her, then leave the bottle as the vase for flowers instead of a regular vase. Unfortunately, they couldn't find Old Milwaukee in a 40oz, so we had to settle for Budwiser. :)
Cheers, Grandma.

Hi Mandi!
Awesome, awesome, awesome post. I LOVE your grandmother! What style.
I missed you while I was in Dallas, but I did try to keep up with your blog on my BlackBerry. Glad to be home though. When I left it was winter, and when I got home, it's summer. Love it.
I love it* Sounds like your grandma had a very similar spirit to my Grandma Gillooly. She gave us the same immense love of family, fun, and life. When we buried her, I think almost all 22 cousins were together. Right before they closed her casket, the cousins got together and we slipped a beer & a cigarette in with her. My uncle says he swears he saw her hand twitch, lol.
Congratulations! You have been bestowed with the Premios Dardo Award. Please swing by Casa Hice for further instructions.
