My Gram was the best Grandma anyone could have. I enjoyed a well "traveled" childhood with her and my Gramp, they took me all over the Eastern Seaboard, including Texas. SHe will be missed, but now she is reunited with Grandpa and her little "Laddy" (dog). I'll miss you Gram...:)

I will truly miss you Frannie Guber. I loved to talk to you about being the mayor of "Guberville" just to watch you laugh. Crescent Manor will not be the same. Love you lots and lots more.
