I will miss "Grandma Oatmeal" and all her stories. She was very dear to me and I know she was very loved by all her family and she loved all her family dearly. Greenfield is not the same without her wonderful smile and boisterous laughter. My thoughts and prayers are with you all in this time of loss.
