Grandma,

I am thankful for all the years and wonderful memories I shared with you. I will always remember you teaching me how to play cards, going to see the new Disney movies every year, and playing Keno at Sidelines when we got breakfast. I have always admired you and Grandpa's love and dedication for each other right until the end. May you rest forever in peace. I love you and I will miss you every day of my life.

I'm so sad for the loss of Auntie. She was really the only aunt I was close with. I have lots of memories growing up with Auntie and Unc. I wish everyone the best. Love, Cheryl

Grama,
I'll miss you every day and you'll ALWAYS be in my heart. Thank you for being a wonderful Grama to me and Great Grama to Jameson and Jarett. I have many memories to share with them. I'll miss your smile, your kind soul and your "spit fire" flair. I love you so much and am so lucky I had almost 34 years with you. No more pain, love always... Heather (your Gertie)

Thank you to all of my wonderful friends and extended family for your loving support over the past month to me and my family... To anyone who knew my Grama you know how much she meant to all of us. Thanks again, it means the world. XOXO
