She sounds amazing. One of my biggest regrets is that I never had the chance to get to know my grandparents and parents as an adult. My family is short lived.
It's one of the reasons that I believe that we should respect our elders. They have much to teach us.

I am so sorry to hear that. My grandparents enriched my life so much. Granny ..I never knew my father’s father..and her husband who was for all intent and purposes, was my grandfather, and my maternal grandparents, were as different as night and day. I treasure their memories. How old were you when your grandparents and parents died?

Do you have other extended family? Aunts, uncles, cousins?
