I have alot of fond memories of Gram. I lived with her for sometime and even though we were not blood related, I was part of her family. I was her "adopted" grandaughter as she would call me. I ate some of the best meals during that time. We would play cards until late and just "kid and cut up". (as she would say) Gram will always have a special place in my heart. She will be missed.
