Grammy P, you will forever be missed and loved. You were a beautiful lady with a heart of gold. I have tons of memories of you when I was a kid growing up as you were my God Mother but I always called you Grammy P. I didn't see much of you as I got older but you always talked to me when I made it to Butler and you seen me. I will miss you.
