Give her a gift card of YOUR OWN TIME with her. Like take a day just for you two. Such as, go to her house and take her out to lunch and let her tell you stores of when she was young. I know alot of older people just want someone to spend time with and to tell their stories to. Just make time for her.

My husband's grandparents are 90 and 92 years old and I love them dearly. I've come to realize they aren't much in need of material things and they live a very simple life.
Grandpa loves to read and grandma wears scarves to ward off chills even in the summer. So we give grandpa a good book or subscription to a magazine, and grandma a colorful silk scarf. They're simple, but thoughtful gifts. Other thoughtful ideas: a nicely framed photo of her in her younger years or a photo of you and her together, a paid housekeeping service, or just your time. If she's still active, you could take her out to dinner, or to see a play together.

You could do that thing where you name a star after someone. It would probably mean a lot to your grandma to know that she would live on forever like that. She probably doesn't really want or need a lot of material stuff, so that's an idea.

Please tell me you quite did no longer get her a $one hundred fifty present card to Fredrick's. i'm hoping you comprehend that she became in simple terms being sarcastic; it became a shaggy dog tale! How some eye-catching handkerchief along with her call and a quick, inspirational Bible verse embroidered onto it. you may get the embroidery achieved on the mall in some million hour and it may value $20 max.

I have a 95 year old great-aunt that I love dearly. She loves having her nails done. How about a manicure? She also might love a pedicure, too, they are fabulous!

Look around and see what she needs and if you truly cannot decide on something, get her a giftcard from a store she shops at alot.
(i.e. JcPenny, Michael's, Target, Wal*Mart, etc.)
