Grandpa and I seem to be thoroughly enjoying ourselves, but Grandma was caught with a profoundly forlorn and faraway look.
Basically, she died of old age, as far as I can tell, at 77 years old or so in 1977, perhaps 1978 (I know I was living in that end BOQ room when I got the call from Ann).
The same happened to Grandpa Sanchez at 94 when everything began breaking down all at once. The same also happened to dad at 81 when everything with his body had failed or was failing.
Not really cancer or heart disease, just total system failure, primarily the kidneys, but mostly because of old age with everything giving out at almost the same time.
