My grandma was the best person a anyone could ever ask for and she always wanted to be part of our lives so she would always make sure that we were always able to go visit her in Florida every single year when she was healthy and able to. My grandpa and her husband Ted, the best grandpa ever, were always there for me and my sister no matter what. They always loved each of us in their own ways and tried to help us through the lives we had been given!! I will always be thankful and grateful to have been their grandchildren and proud to have had such wonderfully blessed years together and for the times they had to make the best experiences and memories possible, thank you both for sharing your stories and memories with me and my sister, "Crysta Girl", as we were both very lucky and will now miss and love you so deeply and hope you rest peacefully in heaven and watch down on us! We love and miss you and can only hope that you´re able to rest well and remember the memories that we had now and remember that you were always the best person in the universe. You are going to be missed forever!

My Grandma Phyllis and Grandpa Ted were the very greatest grandparents anyone could ever ask for! Especially as being her first born granddaughter and she had 3 boys, so she loved me immediately after, of course! She taught me how to sew and quilt wall hangings and we loved to listen to music and sing together. In fact, this picture is the last time I was able to see her in person unfortunately because she was becoming more sick from Alzheimer´s. She was so happy to be able to hold my first and only child, Emily Rose Johnson, just 3 days after she was born! I learned to sit up straight like a lady, keep my elbows off the dinner table, and always do my best at everything in life. I will always be grateful for the opportunity that came with being her granddaughter and part of my grandparents lives! It was the best times of me and my brothers lives and my brother will cherish those times we shared together! My grandma was my role model and may she always be remembered for all the things she did for her family, friends, and even her church! Rest peacefully and know that you were like a mother to us and we will always love and miss you so deeply!

Phyllis and I worked together for 26 years. She was my co-worker and then became my boss. But more than that she was my very dear friend. I will always cherish our friendship.
