Terry, Gene and family,
I was so sorry to hear about the loss of your grand-daughter, nothing breaks a grand-parent's heart more than to have a grand-child taken away. I am still having a hard time with the loss of our grand-son this past March. I will pray that it gets easier as time goes by. Our love and prayers--Laurette and Bill

A life so short but shared with so many is as her grandmother always called her an "Angel." From your loving arms to Gods she will be as unconditional
