We are so very sorry that you have lost a truly wonderful mother, grandmother and ggreatgrandmother. Knowing all the birthday parties and holidays you spent with her, a huge hole will be in your hearts. However, you have so many memories of her dry wit, mannerisms and funny unexpected comments to comfort you. So very sorry that you have lost a lovely lady.
