Grandma, I know that I spent the least amount of time with you of all your grandchildren and that I'm unlucky in that as you were clearly a loving and devoted grandparent. I wish that life had made it easier for us to make more memories but I hope you know that I cherish the ones I have and the few phone conversations, as well. I hope you're giving Grandpa a little bit of grief up there and laughing a lot. I love you. I'll try to keep Pa, Ma, and Aneesha in line but you know how he is so no promises!
