Please accept my condolences for your loss. I ran out of grandparents a few years ago but still miss them all dreadfully. My last grandfather died 18 years ago and I STILL occassionaly receive junk mail addressed to him, believe it or not. I'm sure he would be amazed to know that the "Veterans' Charity Group" or whoever they are is still trying to pry money out of him. Soooooo, just a friendly warning not to expect this to be the last call you'll receive for her for (possibly quite) a while. Maybe you can think of them as small "memorials" (in the sense that you will be reminded of her) each time they call.
