In the last ten years you have grown to be my favorite person. When I married Keith I had no idea I would end up with another grandparent that I love just like my own. You have always treated me as your own and for that I am grateful. It's hard to not be selfish in wanting you to still be on this earth, but I am thankful that you are no longer in pain. I want to thank you for your love, your humor, your compassion, your heart, and your advice. My life has been made better because of you. You are my hero. I love you little, I love you big, I love you like a little pig. Rest easy now, Granny.
