Grandma, I miss you. I know you are in a better place, and I know we will see you again some day in heaven. Just knowing that you are up there watching over all of us, makes me feel like you are still here. I did not get to say goodbye to you, and I did not get to tell you that I love you. I hope that you know just how much me and the kids love you. You will be missed. Please tell grandpa hello for us. I sure do miss having coffee with you every day and the kids miss hanging out with you too... We love you and miss you so much.
