Grandma even after all the wonderful years you took care of me and my boys and I knew you when everytime you picked me up I spit up on you, but you always loved me anyway :) so I know I was one of the top favorites. Nina and I could giggle that whole house down except we always waited to hear you two up there in the front bed shouting at us YOU GIRL CUT OUT THAT GIGGLLING or ELSE !!! We love to teace you two. So now get up there in the big cozy bed in the sky and tell again..... or better yet I'll now tell you... knock off the gigglles and GO TO SLEEP...... I love you both together again forever.

Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
Because a loved one's gone.
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart,
Far as long as there is memory,
They'll live on in the heart.

Grandma's destiny is in her children and her grand-children. She will never really be gone because she lives on in each one of us and her legacy will live on as we have more generations...

Grandma's are like moms only with frosting...

We love you Grandma you were the strenght of our family and that lives on in your children.

Love, Vickie Saling (Grandaughter)
