I'll miss your smile and your laugh but I'll always have our memories. "Family isn't always blood. It's the people in your life who want you in theirs; the ones who accept you for who you are. The ones who would do anything to see you smile and love you no matter what." I love you, Grandma. Give Grandpa Eddie, Marcia and Granny Duke a big hug from me when you get there.
