Cheryl and Myron and family I am so sorry about your Mother's death. We never know what to say at times like this... but be thankful she didn't linger for months. It is never easy but she died with loved ones surrounding her and know in your heart that you dont' have to see her suffer any longer.... God Bless you and your family Cheryl.

Grammy,
You will always be in my heart & I will love you forever. Everything that's good in me I owe to YOU. I remember everything you taught me, you were the one that always told me to have "the womans touch." There is no other like you, and there never will be. I wish you can be here forever so we can run down & tell you the next chapter of our life. I love you with all my heart & will miss you so much. I want to be just like you, you're my hero.
