Farewell to Eva
In memory of Eva Carlstrom, Andy's aunt. She unexpectedly/expectedly passed away in her Ballard home this morning after battling pancreatic cancer for not quite a year.
She was a staunchy Norwegian woman who had a loom that took up the entry way of her living room, and knitting skills that no other can rival. We are proud owners of some of her heirloom pieces she knitted. She enjoyed her happy hour with her husband, and making amazing doll clothes for her granddaughters.
I'm happy she welcomed me into her family when I married Andy. We will miss her -- and her annual 17th of May parade parties.
(Oh great, now I'm all teary eyed.) Good bye Eva!
