On Thursday, Aug 12,2004, I lost a very special person in my life - my grandmother. She was an inspiration to everone that knew her. To me she was the most loving, the kindest and the strongest person that I have ever known and I will miss her forever. I know without a doubt that Grandmommy is in heaven and suffering no more. She will be in our hearts forever.
