Granny-
Though you are gone, the memories that we created together will last longer than a life time. You were loved while you were here and even in death. Your smiling face is what will be remembered by all, along with your spunky personality. And that is how my family and I will remember you. WE LOVE YOU. Rest In Peace Granny.
Love,
Princeton, Lesley & Hannah Pierson
