Not sure what to say?

Grandma, I am going to miss you more than words could ever say. Calling home will never seem quite right again. Your my strength to carry on.

While I never had the pleasure of meeting Phyllis, she and I talked a couple of times on the phone. What a blessing to talk to this precious lady who so very much impacted Candice (my daughter-in-law)'s life. Her legacy has been passed on to the next generations. I know I will get to meet her one day. God bless all of her descendants who have wonderful long-lasting memories of this dear lady.

I miss you Mom. You were such an inspiration to me. There are so many good memories from the time I was little to the day you left us. God allowed you to depart so gently and quietly from us. I know you are so much better now and I can only imagine the happiness you felt when you and Dad's Spirits reunited. This is not goodbye, just so long until we meet again in God's great plan for our future. Love you, Sydney
