It was so sad when you left us but knowing that you are singing, dancing and visiting with family and friends and being so happy will get us all through it until we see you again.

I'm very proud to call her my grandma. I have many memories of her while growing up.
I will never forget her telling me, how she gave me my first bath when I was born. :)
She lived her life to the very fullest. I will never forget you Grandma. I'll always love you.
