Gram I have so many memories of you to share with Macklin when he gets older. Splashing each other in my little plastic pool. You would let me take the wheel in your car and allow me to think I was the one driving!! Sleep overs at your house where we shared the bed and made gramp sleep in the spare room!!! Losing many teeth and happily placing them under my pillow at your house because the tooth fairy was more than generous! Afternoon visits to father "Poopsies" home at St Johns. My childhood was filled with so many wonderful experiences that you were a part of. You now are up there having a Suchoski family reunion. I love you grammy, and know you will watch over our family.
