My sympathy to Marvin and to all who helped take care of Grandma. Grandma was a very special lady, she was someone that has given me some of my most fond memories, especially those from my childhood. Grandma will always be in my heart and someone that I loved very much. I pray that Grandma is at peace now and at a better place with God. Love Belinda
