If you ever knew my Grandmama, you know you walked away with a smile on your face after talking with her. She was filled with unconditional love. While she was never afraid to give her opinion, she never judged you for yours. She always closed the conversation with, I love you, and God Bless you. God broke the mold after creating her. I am proud to call her my Grandmama. I will miss her forever.
