Charlie Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I never met my grandmother on my Dad's side, I was never particularly close to my granddad and step-gran on that side, although we saw them every couple of months they were very elderly and in poor health. They died in the same week as each other about 7 years ago I think.. I'm really close to my gran on my mums side, I play tennis with her quite a lot, we go on family holidays with her too. My grandpa on that side died in 1996 from Cancer, I was quite young then and don't really remember him very well. My grans remarried to possibly the most awesome guy ever, he's really funny and just really nice in general. Welcomed us (us=all my cousins/aunts/uncles [19 alltogether]) all into his house whenever we want to. Goes on holiday with us, me and my brother (Balfron) play doubles with him and my gran on their tennis court. My whole family are going to stay with them for a week over Christmas, there's enough room for all 20 of us to have a bed there too Very big house.

Platty Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 my sympathies go to you daboorkerman. All my grandparents were either dead before i was born or died when i was young. i only have my mum left in the way of "parents" as my dad died when i was just 3 years old.

MoogleViper Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I have Grandad on Dad's side and Grandmother on mother's side. I only have one granny left, and I'm proud to post her here with me, I love her to bits: She is the stereotypical Grandmother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goron49 Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I've never knew my dads side of the family, I might have more than 1 grandparent alive, but I don't know. The only last remaining grandparent of mine (that I know of) is my grandad, he is 71, my grandma died a few months ago (70), it's quite strange that my grandma died first than my grandad, because usually its the other way round. But I was very sad at her death, very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyPunch Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I've only one grandparent left, my grandma, but she's probably not going anywhere anytime soon. She had her first hart attack over thirty years ago, since then she survived another two (major ones, I might add). She also survived breast cancer, two open-heart surgeries and god knows what else. For over 30 years my mother and the rest of the family thought she could die any day, but she's still allive and kicking today. She is one tough granny.

Ashley Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I have four grandparents. The one grandad is, lets say "old fashioned" and keeps telling me to do silly stuff like learn spanish, join the army and right a book. He annoys me kind of but still love him in that grandparenty kinda way. The rest all rock, especially my mom's mom cause shes so ace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katie Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 One of my nans died before I was born and both my granddads died when I was young so I don't really remember them. I was scared of my gdad for some reason, I used to hide under the table when he came in the kitchen (I Was only 2/3). I had a stepnan too that we went to see now and again but I don't think we were told when she died. My nan that I knew well only lived round the corner from us, she died a few years ago; she was great. Once I wrapped her present in a tissue box but she thought I'd bought her tissues and said it was just what she needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#1cubeplayer Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 My grandfather was murdered when I was 8. My great-grandmother died when I was 12 or 13. My other grandfather died last year. My dad's mom is one incredibly horrible person and I hate her. My mom's mom is opposite and very sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
