Not sure what to say?

Where to start. Granny was a very special person to me as she was to so many. She touched so many lives she has always been there for me. She never judged me just Loved me. Granny I miss you so much. I know you are looking down on us and just smiling. I cant wait until we meet you again. Thanks for all the memories we will never forget you.

Granny,
You live in our hearts forever. When I would visit Rhonda you were always so nice to me. I'll never forget you taking me around your beautiful yard and showing me all of your lovely flowers. May God bless you and keep you. Love, Lisa

Granny, we all love you so much and we miss you. There is a big part missing and always will be until we all meet again. You were a real inspiration to me and so many others. You were also my special friend. I will never forget the times you were there for me and all the rest of the family. I love you and will see you again.

Granny,
I always have and always will love you! You were the best friend a person could have ever asked for. You cared for and loved all that God handed you with dignity and extreme grace. I'm sure that he is glad to finally have you in his home. You will live on this earth through all of the lives that you touched with your wonderful kindness and love. Those of us left here will miss you until we all meet again.........

I am one of Drudie's grand-daughters. I have thankfully had 41 years with "granny". There are so many things to miss about her. I sure will miss our talks and knowing that she was nearby always. Thanksgiving and Christmas and any special occasion will never be the same again. How we will all miss her thoughtfulness, generousity, kindness and unconditional love. We love you granny!

Rhonda

Granny was the best. She was not only my great grandmother but she was also my best friend. I will never forget the 23 yrs. of memories I have with her. I cannot believe she is gone - it is hard to imagine the next stage of life without her. She touched so many lives; more than anyone could ever imagine. She will always have a special place in my heart as well as so many others. Thank you to all who helped our family out through this trying time. And always remember, Granny is now...

I will miss seeiing Drudie. I will always have fond memories of her.

How many times I have thought of the little home I rented from your Mom next door.

I was as proud of it as mansion.

I was so thrilled when I found out I was getting my home built in Welcome,NC., but I guess once that salt water gets in your blood, your doomed as a beach bum.

I so enjoyed going over to talk girl things and so enjoyed the delicious food she would give me.

God Bless and may he give you comfort now and the days that lie ahead. Kay...
