I am still in complete shock. You were the most amazing woman I have ever met. You literally had open arms for anyone who stepped foot inside your home. You loved everyone for who they were. I know how much you meant to Marissa. I'll never forget the days you were arguing with your husband, those were the funniest. "Can you do this family a favor and get a hearing aid" You always had a smile on your face and filled the room with laughter. Even when I was just sitting there on the couch you would do something that would make me laugh. Now you and Roy can have your funny arguments in heaven & please watch over Marissa. I will miss you!
