Today we lay to rest Mary Cornelius, Bob's grandmother. A woman of quiet dignity and grace for whom family was life's greatest accomplishment and joy.
Along with "Bud" she raised four terrific children - Harry, Pam, Kathie and Jeff - and took delight in her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She took special care to make her home welcoming and warm, and loved to cook for us all.
Beautiful, faithful and elegant, I remember her always with a gentle smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye. She will be missed, but her legacy goes on.

Jodi,
What beautiful words about Bob's Grandmother. We only met her one time, but I remember the warmth with which she and Bud opened their home to us on one of our first visits to Cumberland. I know she will be missed. Love, MOM
Dearest Jodi,
Thank you so very much for the lovely words depicting Mom. Every person she knew was touched in some way by her. She had love in her heart and soul. Love, Pam
Dear Jodi,
When I checked the blog it took my breath away! Mom was so beautiful, inside and out. She would be so honored and humbled by your kind, loving words. Thank you for being here for Mom, for Dad, for Bobby, for Cearra, for me, and for our family. She loved you very much, as we all do.
Nanny
