Dear Miss Imogene: You will be missed but the GOOD memories will always be with me. Thanks for all the good advice, wisdom, talking me throught boken hearts, teaching me my left from my right while walking to Sandy Beach how to tell time and the use of your "gorwn-up" swimsuits.

I pray that the fishing is beyond imagination in your new home and I look forward to going to the 5 mile reef with you once again someday.

You will alsways be remembered.

Love,

"Punkie"

Grandma, I miss you so much. You were my best friend. I prayed that this day would never come but in my heart I knew it would. You are my angel now and will always sit on my shoulder and guide me though life like you always have. You are happy now and that gives me peace. Go with God grandma and know you are always in my heart. Your loving grandaughter, Steph
