Dear Sharon, Robin, and Bruce,
Your Mom shaped my life in so many ways. She was the matriarch of what I came to
know as our multi-generational family, providing the glue and infrastructure to make it
all possible. It was your Mom that made a home for our Bubby, for Uncle Julius, for Uncle
Itzek. To keep family life going for them long after they were unable to do it for
themselves. For my Dad, he would always drop what he was doing to fix something at
your house even to detriment of our own home. For my Dad, your Mom kept his original
family intact and he was forever grateful that in doing so, he was allowed to have a family
of his own.
My fondest memory of your Mom was relatively recent (~20 years ago). A con man came
to the house on Bland Avenue claiming that he was a friend of mine and I was stranded in
Baltimore. He asked for money. Your Mom refused and called me in California. I was
exercising on the stationary bike and my wife Renee brought me the phone. After some
confusion we realized she had thwarted an attempt at theft and we both felt strong and
triumphant over adversity. Our family bond won the day. That was your Mom,
overcoming adversity through strong family bonds regardless of what life threw at her.
My wife Renee had this to say about your Mom's strength of will, " Whenever I think
about Cranie, I think of someone that is the original pioneer, crossing the country in a
covered wagon and leading the way".
Her strength of will and dedication and love of family are what I will miss the most. I am
happy I was able to visit with her last August when we were in town. We are all a
composite of the people that raised us and my Aunt Cranie had a huge and positive effect
on the father, husband, and family member that I have become.
She will be forever in my heart.
