My grandmother was 94 years old with many health problems, so her passing wasn’t exactly unexpected.

Around 8:30 CST on Monday (10/30) night, I randomly started thinking about eating Southern Maid donuts at my grandmother’s kitchen table in Shreveport, LA when I was a child in the 80’s. I lost my shit and was inconsolable, despite my husband’s best efforts.

My mother texted me at 9 pm that my grandmother had passed at 8:30.

It seemed to be a weird coincidence to me, but my mother wasn’t surprised given how close I was to her. I am heartbroken. I love my parents very much, but my grandmother was my real life heroine. She was an executive for an international company way before most people ever thought women could be, and was anti-racist many decades before it was cool.

Just thought this would be the best place to post about this weird, random coincidence. Make of it what you will.
