Such a sweet grandmother who always gave encouragement and love to me even when she was tired and weak. Her care for grandpa was an example to all of us. Marriages, despite being difficult sometimes, is worth saving. The love grandma and grandpa had for each other in these last days was an example to all of us. Over sixty years of marriage - it can be done!
