Dear Grandma Margie,
You will truly be missed. U are the reason many of us exist today. I am grateful for the 37 years of memories we shared and even more grateful that my own 3 children had a chance to make their own memories with you. Say hello to my brother Bryan and those relatives that you will be joining. I'm not sure if they are ready for you yet, but watch out here you come! XOXOXO
