Grandmother dies without respect and her childlike actions are brushed aside by her daughter and son-in-law. She was a pillar of strength and love as a mother, she was hardworking both as a wife and mother. It seems her compassion and motherly love haven't rubbed off on her daughter, as she is afforded none in return at the end of her life.
