On April 28, 2009, Grandma Rose passed away. In a way, the landscape of our lives has been changed. Grandma gathered us together, whether for dinners at the Mandarin Restaurant and Olive Garden or Sunday night political discussions held in the family room amidst piles of biographies and jigsaw puzzles half complete. With the loss of Grandma, a new generation of "gatherers" has emerged. Through them, reunions are being planned, contact lists are circulating and web pages are in the making. I look forward to this new energy and the Calder connections that are sure to continue from one generation to the next.
