Not sure what to say?

My grandma and I were and still are very close. We shared a special bond that niether one of us shared with another. She was a wonderful person with great strength and love in our family. I could talk to her for hours on the phone about everything or nothing at all, just hearing her voice made me smile. I will forever hold her dear in my heart and will never forget the wonderful memories I have shared with her in my lifetime.
I love you and miss you!

Grandma Willie will be missed dearly.
She is the nicest and most caring person I've known. She loved being
with her family and we enjoyed her so much! I love you, Grandma!!!!

Ed and Kathy,
So very sorry about the loss of your mother. Just the short years that I knew your mother, I knew that she was a very sweet, nice and caring woman who loved her family so much. I enjoyed so much just talking to her. Losing a parent is so difficult but in time it will get easier. I know because I have been through it. Our minister once said that when a person passes away and on their headstone is the date they were born, a dash and the date they died. Do not dwell on those...

I was honored and grateful to have such a wonderful woman, as my mother in law.. I will miss her...

I love you Grandma Willie. XOXO

Frank, Kathy and my dear neices and nephew...It hurts me to know how you are hurting...The loss of a mother and a dear grandmother is so hard to overcome but, we somehow endure...in time. With the love of a close family, long talks of our fondest memories and in our own quiet moments alone reminiscing. Willie was a sweet, kind, and gentle woman. She was the matriarch of many a gathering and she will be sorely missed. I thank God that he was with her at the end of her life and that she (like...

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. We knew she had hurt her hip but did not know of how bad she was doing. Our prayers are with you all.
