Not sure what to say?

Grandma you meant the world to me and I’m going to miss you dearly. I always loved the time me and you spent together. You were my favorite person and I truly adored you. I love watching Bigfoot shows with you and doing arts and crafts. I will miss our talks and sharing happy moments together. I will miss you worrying about me all the time. I love you grandma and always will. I will see you again one day.

Great memories of Charlene when we were kids growing up in Harahan. From Labor Day picnics (hula hoops), to just running around each other´s yards playing , and having the honor of standing in her and Bobby´s wedding. I´ll always remember her sunny disposition , sweet smile and laughter. She will be missed dearly by family and friends.

Gone from our sight, but not from our hearts. We love you mom.
