10 Years already grandma! I remember when I would take my lunch breaks from work and go visit my grandma Lena. We'd catch up on life, talk about her life experiences, TV shows, her sewing, recipes, just anything. I remember when I was an early teenager, I would (so unfortunately) not be interested in chit-chatting with her. But as time went by, I made up for those (selfish) times and LOVED talking with her. My grandma helped me SO much with getting over a bad relationship, by just listening and advising me. I miss our talks!
@>-;------ Love You Grandma Lena

My prayers and thoughts are with the Rougemonts. Lena was like a mom to me, my visits with her were warm and tresured in my heart. When I had no-one else to talk to she was there for me, to give me advise and just to sit with her and drink a cup of tea with her. I will miss you dearly. I love you Lena, not to worry you are in good hands now. God Bless You, Nina Apodaca
