You were always there for me, as you were for all us kids. You were my rock. I feel we developed a special bond when I became so very sick. You came by every day to make sure I was okay while Ed was at work. You made sure I had breakfast and lunch. You would take me for rides in the car just to get me out of the house. You took me to Dr. appointments. I knew you loved me. I use to talk to you at least once or twice a day. I miss your voice. I loved hearing your childhood stories no matter how many times you told them. I have many wonderful Greer memories. You were loved by many. I love you and miss you so much.
