Not sure what to say?

Gramdma King was very special. I remember one day when she was in her 80's helping her load the back porch with wood and she said if I needed to take a rest she would get rest. I thought, 'No way was I going to let an 80 year old out do me. I would work right beside her.'

I’ve decided to write a poem in loving memory of my great grandma, I love you.


Your loving gestures gave us all a smile to carry on through the day
Your gone, but not forgotten, though I wish you could stay

For your Bible was always in hand
I know you made it happily to the promise land

The tears that stream downward, are looking for a place to take cover
Though they are memories of an extraordinary grandmother

I’ll never...

Sanford and Stella, Sorry for you mothers passing but she had a long life. My prayers are with you in your time of sorrow. God Bless
