I could not have chosen a more caring and supportive Mother-In-Law. You could always make things better with your infectous laugh. I will miss you and keep you in my heart always. I love you.

Grandma, you were the best! We had so many great times together going out to lunch, for drives, shopping, or just hanging out in your room. I miss how we would laugh and giggle about the silliest of things. I miss you so much, Granny! I love you forever!
