What a great portrait! Nice job!
Reminds me of Bill wither's song, "Grandma's Hands".
[Intro]
Mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm-mmm
[Verse 1]
Grandma's hands clapped in church on Sunday morning
Grandma's hands played a tambourine so well
Grandma's hands used to issue out a warning
She'd say, "Billy don't you run so fast
Might fall on a piece of glass
Might be snakes there in that grass,"
Grandma's hands
[Verse 2]
Grandma's hands sooth the local unwed mother
Grandma's hands used to ache sometimes and swell
Grandma's hands used to lift her face and tell her
She'd say, "Baby Grandma understands
That you really loved that man
Put yourself in Jesus' hands."
Grandma's Hands
[Verse 3]
Grandma's hands used to hand me piece of candy
Grandma's hands picked me up each time I fell
Grandma's hands, boy they really came in handy
She'd say, " Mattie don't you whip that boy
What you want to spank him for?
He didn't drop no apple core,"
But I don't have Grandma anymore
If I get to heaven I'll look for
Grandma's hands

Beautiful Joe,
A portrait of a well lived life. I agree on presenting it in B/W, takes away all the distractions and reveals her life's journey with all its nooks and crannies. I haven't seen that nut before, what kind is it ? RJW

No words can describe this feeling of the loss...Nothing can describe your loving and loved Mother’s personality better than this picture... Thank you for sharing Her loving memory with us, Joe...

My mother died in December of 2003 at the age of 92 and your mother's hand brought back memories that never go away.
When our mothers die, is like closing a door that would never open again and a loss that cannot be taken back.
My condolences.
