Gramma If I had a penny for every time you made me smile I would be a very rich woman. You were not only a wonderful grandmother you were also a friend. I am going to miss you terribly. I am greatful that I had the opportunity to spend the summer with you, and also gave Aneglica the chance to know you as well. She adored you as much I did at that age. I love you so much! Thank you for being you and allowing me to be me!!! xoxoxo Always and forever, in my heart you will remain! JeanMarie (Diaper Girl)
