I always say I lived my life with my grandmother. She was emotionally stable, and she was very encouraging to me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I was 19 and dropped out of college for several months, I lived for some time with my grandmother.
My grandmother influenced me so deeply.
My grandmother was a huge influence on me and the fact that there was this very strong, rather formidable presence of women in my life has been an enormous value.
I think when I became a grandmother my life changed a lot, and I think I changed personally.
I always remember having a healthy respect for my grandmother.
My grandmother, she's been the positive portion of my life the entire time.
I enjoyed my grandparents very much. My mother and father would always allow me to stay with them.
My grandmother, who passed away at the beginning of November, had a core adage in her life that 'life is not about what happens to you but about what you do with what happens to you.' She recently had been cajoling me and challenging me to do more with my life. To lead more of a purposefully public life.
I was fortunate to be raised by loving grandparents.
My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life.
