Grandmother,

You were an angel to all that met you, and you will continue to be our angel. I thank you for what you meant to my life, and I know I wouldnt have the success I have and the life I have if it wasnt for your relentless love and mercy. What a world we would live in if everyone was more like you. You will be remembered and dearly missed.
