Sweet Grandma,
I'm going to miss your smile and how you'd say hi when I walked in the room. Thank you for all the sweet memories. I'm so glad I had you so close even if it was only for a short time. I'm thankful Olivia had an opportunity to get to know you and come to love you dearly. You were a wonderful Grandma and Great- Grandma. I love you very much! I know you're at peace with Grandpa and Uncle Jim.
