I am thankful for my Grandmother Persch. If she was still living today would be her 101st birthday! It has been 17 years (on this coming Sunday) since she passed away, and while she is not a canonized saint I am confident she is living in glory with our Eternal Father, and so I can gladly consider her my patron saint, after all she is my namesake. My middle name is Grace and so was hers, except unlike me, she went by her middle name. My first day teaching was November 7, 2005 and I am pretty sure she had her hand on that. As well as many other things that seem to happen on the 7th or 11th of November for me. I was just lamenting yesterday that if it was going to be this cold it should snow, and today, SNOW! :)
