    Marv, sorry to hear that you loss your great-grandmother to this horrible 1918 Pandemic.

    When I was doing my research for this thread I discovered that the Spanish Flu 1918 pandemic lasted from January 1918 - December 1920, with a quarter of the world infected, estimated at about 500 million people and a death toll as high as 50 million to 100 million, making it the deadliest pandemic in human history!

    Thank you MusicWise. I always get sad when I think about my grandmother was only 11 years old when her mother died from the Spanish Flu. I take some consolation that my grandmother lived until she was 100 years old in 2007.

    Marv, God always gives us DOUBLE blessings for our trouble. Your grandmother got to live out her years and I'm sure her grandchildren, including you, will enjoy an even longer life. TFS
