Oh Mary, I am so very sorry to hear about your Mom. I feel such a loss and I never even met her. I have been sitting here thinking of all the funny stories you have told me about her with tears in my eyes. You know how she loved to talk. I bet she is just talking someone's ear off right now telling them what a great daughter you have been to her. Hugs and kisses to you and your family.

Although I've lived far away from my grandma, I have so many sweet memories of my times with her. Her coming to Baltimore/DC to meet her first great-granddaughter, her making friends with strangers everywhere we visited, our past few Thanksgivings together, and many meals and laughs (and maybe a margarita or two) at Papasitos. I will never forget her huge heart, sweet smile, little giggle, and sparkling eyes. You will be greatly missed, and forever in my heart! I love you, Grandma!
