Great Grandma-

I'm really going to miss you. I hope you are very happy in heaven. I could only hope you are happier than us down on earth.

Love always,

Ashley Candace

Grandma,

I will always love you. You are and always will be the most wonderful Grandma. I will always remember the laughter. How you used to clean our faces and ears, how you used to poke us with those sharp nails. Your distinct voice and clear cut way with words. You were so feisty and full of fire. Luckily for me I have retained some of those traits and so has Erin, I only hope I can be as great a person as you were!



I love you and will always miss you.



Colleen
