Lisa and family,

I will never forget how sweet and kind your mother always was. What an example for all of us to be like her. You did an amazing job, along with your family taking care of her in her last years. Our thoughts are with your family at this time.

Grandma, you will be greatly missed. You were the most happy grateful loving person. They say who you really are comes out when you are old, and if that is true, I hope we all can be more like you. We LOVED the time we spent with you helping take care of you. That is when we became the closest to you. Our kids enjoyed talking with you, watching Sesame Street at Jim and Lisa's kitchen counter and telling you about it, and eating sugar free icecream bars and having you say, "These are love pats for your tummy". You are adorable! You were always so grateful and always commented at how lucky you were to have a great family. We were so lucky to have you! We are so glad you are comfortable again and with Grandpa. We can't wait to see you again someday! Thank you for your great spiritual example! WE LOVE YOU!!!

Grandma we will miss you! You had spunk like no other! I will always remember the love you had for grandpa. It's what I admired most about you when I became engaged to your grandson! You also had a fierce love for your children and grandchildren and were such a great story teller and had so many amazing life experiences that you loved to share with us! I am grateful that you are now reunited with grandpa but we will miss you until we see you again!
