Great Memere, you were the greatest ever. I will never ever forget you. You lived a long and great life. I love you so much. You were the sweetest lady. I miss having you live downstairs from me. I would always come down when I was a little kid and always ask for oatmeal cookies and we would always play stupid card games that I would always make up & end up cheating because you couldn't read the cards, sorry!! It's been hard on everybody with you leaving us, but we all know it was your time to go, and it's so great to know that you are not in pain anymore.. Auntie Sue just had a baby boy a week ago, Colin, he is adorable. I wish you could have met him! But we will all see you soon. I miss you and love you so much Great Memere. I'll be coming by to the cemetary to visit soon. R.I.P<3
