This weekend my Grandmother, Dorris Shields, passed away at 86. She went into surgery with a smile, and said she'd see everyone tomorrow...

She was an incredible person, thankful and grateful for everything she had... Loving and kind and hilarious... She had a huge laugh that no one could resist. Everyone who knew her will miss her tremendously.

This has been very hard on everyone in my family, since we were so close, and we all loved her so much. I'll be going back to D.C. this weekend for the services...
