A year ago today you flew away and went up to be with the Lord. Everyday we all miss you soooo much mawmaw, and it's still hard to believe you're gone. I knew you couldn't and wouldn't be here for very long, so I'm glad I told you I love you so much before you died. A year ago today we lost our Queen and gained an Angel. Always in our hearts, Love you *..your Faryn
