Amanda, I am so sorry for the passing of your grandmother. I was so privileged to be able to spend time with her the last few months. She regularly made me smile and showed her passion for life. I know you will miss her and I hope you find peace in all of your memories of your time with her. I am glad that I met you and I send you love and prayers. Jeanine from hospice.
