portrait of one of the most photographed ladies of Crete

This lady died in Januar 2014, she was like my yiayia (grandmother) In my young years I moved to Crete, and she was the one who learned me how I should behave. She is the mother of my best friend who feels like a sister. This sweet woman on this picture was married with a man who was 41 years older than she was... When she was 27 she had three kids and became a widow. She never married again...
