Grandma was one of the most gentle people I know. As a child I remember she would always get mildly distressed when hearing stories about animals that were hurt or harmed, and she would usually let out a hurt sounding "oh no". However, Grandma's gentleness went a step further than most and extended even to bugs. If she found a bug in the house, I recall that she would usually scoop them up and take them outside. To this day I'm always reminded of her when I see an ant inside, or anything that isn't a spider. While I'm not as tender hearted as her, I will often find myself scooping up the bug and taking it outside. I always think of Grandma as I'm doing so because it's only because of her that I would do such a thing.
On top of that, Grandma made the best food! She always made me a banana cream pie for my birthday which I eagerly looked forward to devouring. No one makes banana cream pie like she did.
