Her smile was made of sunshine, and heart was solid as gold. Her eyes bright as shiny stars, who's love is a rare and beautiful gift and shows it in so many ways in the pride she takes in her family and there's no one who shares it like you. God made a wonderful grandmother and he gave that grandmother to me…. Rest in paradise Love you Always -Breona.
