Yes,  the author’s grandmother was a person strong in character. The instances to prove this are given below.

●The author’s grandmother was a person strong in character. She was a picture of contentment.

●She had her own thoughts about the learning at school. She considered the teaching of scriptures to be more fruitful than science and music.

●In her phase of loneliness and seclusion, she took to wheel-spinning and feeding sparrows.

●She appeared composed and did not display any emotion when the author decided to go abroad for studies.

●Ignoring everyone who tried to stop her, she sang for several hours celebrating the home-coming of her grandson.

●During the last few hours of her life, ignoring the protests of her family members, she stopped talking to everyone and took to reciting prayers and telling her beads.
