I lost my sister yesterday. She was older than me, and would have been 86 next month. Up to about a year ago, I said I'm not sure I'd want to try to keep up with her.
She lived for her accordion. Over the years, she played her accordion in several different polka bands and at one time had her own band. She gave accordion lessons, and in recent years went around to the local veteran's home and other nursing homes around the area and played her accordion to entertain the residents. I'm sure she was older than a lot of the people she was entertaining.
Then, last September a doctor told her that because of severe arthritis in her back and shoulders, she should consider discontinuing her accordion activities. Things started downhill from that point. A couple of weeks ago, she was hospitalized with a combination of pneumonia, leukemia, and heart issues. We visited her in the hospital last Sunday and things didn't look good. Yesterday morning, she called it quits.
But, she had a good life and touched a lot of people over the years.
