Not sure what to say?

Bob and I were so fortunate to be neighbors of Alma and Harold. Her warm smile and generosity as a mom and grandmother were a role model of generosity. Warm regards to family and hope everyone is well and connects despite this era of Covid.

You embodied these verses to the letter. I love you, sweet Grandma!
