Merry Meet @Troy,
What an entrance! 
Thank you for sharing your introduction, you have such a fascinating background in the Craft. I think it is wonderful that you have explored so many various disciplines as you built your magickal practice 
Your grandmother sounds like she was a truly amazing and talented woman. Goodness, I would love to have a winning ritual like she had! I’ll have to start developing one of my own to pass down to future generations 
You are truly blessed to have had her, Troy!
