"Stranger in a Strange Place Still"


This summer, in April my grandmother Claire DeBlois Brown died of cancer at the age of 85. She was my greatest mentor, and probably my best friend. This summer was hard for everyone, but we gathered together like families do. She was a remarkable and beautiful woman and I will always miss her.

Below are pictures from the quiet family gathering we had. She did not want a funeral and would "very well come back and haunt us," if we put her in the ground. So we visited the grave-site of my late grandfather who died several years ago- as well as my uncle who died of pancreatic cancer last year.
