The older I get, the more I value the trait of loyalty, especially loyalty toward family.  This is the trait I will always associate most closely with Grandma.  I always felt sorry for the person who criticized, called a foul on, or chose not to play one of her grand children.  There was guaranteed to be a quick and unfiltered remark from Grandma, as she was determined to support her own through thick and thin.  The support I have felt from Grandma my whole life is something that I know is uncommon, and I have no doubt that her and Grandpa's involvement in my life is a big part of why I value family above anything else.
