Eileen, Billy and Dad

I will always remember the great times I had with grandma, visiting on the weekends when I was younger, our weekly lunch / computer training sessions (More of lunch and chatting than training), checking the fridge for the “To Do” list, Paying me a penny for every nail picked up when the house was being singled. There were so many fun times.

Just I have never forgotten my memories of Grandpa when I was younger (Still can hear his laugh) I will never forget Grandma and the loving person she was.

I will always cherish those memories.
