I love and miss you g'ma!! Thank you for making my childhood wonderful and being the best grandma ever. I miss baking with you but am so glad that you taught me how to make the perfect cookies!! I love how you used to slice apples for me and then cut cheese slices into small shapes like stars and cresents.

God answered my prayer, and took mom from this earth, in her sleep on March 23. When I'd last visited her, she was cheerful and without pain.
