My Great Aunt passed away a few weeks ago. She was a cool lady and I'll miss her a lot. I used to take her to the casino once in a while. I was shocked to get a summons to her will reading. She said that she knew I liked cars, so she willed her 1990 Topaz GS to me. It is real clean and has only 43,000 miles on it. It sat outside since my Great Aunt was 91 and lived in an assisted living home. The car has all options and has functioning A/C. My Great Aunt always called her car the "Old Gramma." Thats how she wrote it on a letter she sent me once. "I have to Take Old Gramma in for a grease job." Too funny. I'd trade the car for her company in a heartbeat.

I'm going to donate my Escort "Radio Flyer" to a needy family at church and use this Topaz as a commuter car. I'm wondering if it will fall apart if I start driving it 400 miles a week? Who knows, but I can't see selling it for a while. I added the "X-treme" Wal-Mart cd player from the Flyer. Now "Old Gramma" is rockin'! :pimp:

I posted a pic in my gallery.

I remember when my grandma passed away last year from cancer. I still won't forget her. It happened all of a sudden, and our family was not able to go and see her one last time. As she started passing away, they said she was yelling our names because she didn't want to go before we arrived. That probably haunted me for weeks as I couldn't get that out of my head. I'm sorry to hear of your loss, as I would probably be willing to give up my Marauder to see her one more time...............
