This is the poem I wrote for Grandma and read at her funeral for anyone who would like to have a copy. Thank you for your love and support!

I will always be amazed at the experiences of your life
How strong and optimistic you remained through all your trials and strife
When I feel like life gets too tough, you inspire me to look up
To see the good when all seems dark, to find the joy within my heart
The things you survived, the happiness you shared, the life you loved to...
