Olga Markovna Melinevskaya
1927-2008
Igor’s grandmother passed away Friday morning. Her family often teased her for having been preparing for her death for 30 years. Somehow, every morning was a surprise to her that she had lived through another night. She was a strong and active woman, though. It took her body 8 days to settle down and let go after she suffered a stroke last week.
She was a lovely woman. She made me feel welcome from the first time I met her. I am glad I knew her.
