My Grandmother was one of a kind, she always had a smile on her face and always made you feel special. I found this poem and thought it might be something Grandma would say to us:



Don't weep for me my dear ones,

I've not gone far

Gently, angels all around me

Took me by the hand

And led me to a garden

In a beautiful golden land

Everywhere was shining

Lovely to behold

I felt a peace I've never known

Wrapped in their arms as they took me home

I wish to thank you, everyone

For all your love and care

Just knowing you were with me

And the happy times we shared

I will never leave you ever

I will be in the sofest sigh

In the gentle summer breezes

And the clouds in a morning sky

Yes, I will be with you forever

As long as there is love

Then one day we'll be together

In God's home above.



Our family was bless to have such a loving Grandmother/Mother in our lives for so long, she will be missed dearly. I Love You Grandma,

Love Lori XXOO

I didn't know her for very long, but in that time, I found her to be one of the sweetest and most caring people I've ever met, and out of all the grandmothers I've ever known, and if such a thing were possible, it would be "Schultzy" that I would choose as my own.
