You were never just time out of my day. My friend, my family, and yes Grandma, my favorite. Lost...that's me, Tara, Becky, Mike, Burt, and Sandy. The silence is overwhelming. I would give anything for one of our names to come over a monitor just one last time. You have filled my heart with memories that will last forever. Love and miss you "Beautiful".

please tell me my broken heart will mend. i keep telling myself it's going to get easier and the pain of not having you hear will fade but that's not the case. o feel more and more pain minute by minute. i am so lucky to have you in my life just feel you were taken too soon. every where i look i see you face, every song i hear reminds me of you. i know your not suffering anymore but it's still very hard. please give me the strength to make it thru the next few days. i have got to stay strong to help mom get thru the hardest thing she has ever done. i love you.

Well grandma, i just want to start by saying thank you for everything. From the talks to spending the night with you to just being you...you always knew how to make me smile and brighten my day. I never wanted to see this day come but i know all good things must come to an end someday. I can say one thing though, it sure hasnt been easy for me. I will miss playing cards with you and just hearing your voice on the other end of the phone :( Please tell grandpa we said hello and I know that we now have another angel watching over us. You are greatly missed and will always be in my heart. I love you grandma. We will meet again someday. Love Angela
