Miss Eva (aka Granny) it sure was a blessing to have what time we had together. There was never a dull moment when you were around. You always kept me on my toes. Sure wish we could of had one last chance to set down together with a Reeses sonic blast and a good ole conversation. Those days will forever be cherished. Rest easy now Granny. I love you
