I’m sorry that I could not be there with all of you whom I love today at the funeral so I wrote a little something to express my sorrow.

To My Beautiful Grandmother Ida whom I will never forget and will cherish for my lifetime. I cannot believe that you left us. I thought that I was going to see you again, laugh with you, talk to you, hold you, and share my ups and downs, I may not have been able to spend as much time with you as I’d liked but im so fortunate that in my nineteen years you touched every aspect of my life.
When I think of all the times that we have shared together, I cannot think of one time you even raised your voice at me, if anything you would get mad at my mom for getting mad at me. You even held on fifteen minutes to your precious life to avoid leaving this world on the day I came into this world.
Gramma you were so beautiful in everything that you did. The last hug I gave you I will hold onto forever. You are my inspiration I will never forget you. I love you so much

Your Lizzy
