  	I (Elizabeth Maureen McCree Jones) was at Grandma's house with Mom (Maureen Lucille Keag McCree) cleaning for either her return to do hospice or her not returning and selling the trailer. Dad (Herbert Loius McCree) called on the phone. I answered. He said "It's over - she is gone". It was nearly too much for me to hear the tears in my Father's voice. That was it. Grandma has passed away.
