I was very saddened to hear of the passing of "Grandma". She was such a beautiful and caring person. We truly enjoyed being in her presence each time she visited North Carolina. There is so much joy in knowing that she is not dead, but yet just began to live. To Jackie, Stantelle, and the entire Miller family, you all will continually be in our thoughts and prayers.
