Granny. Damn. I can not believe you are not here, in body. I miss you so much! I'm glad you're no longer suffering' but I can not express how much I miss having you here. I was sick and in the hospital and I was hoping someone would call the house and I'd hear your voice and you'd pray for me. But I soon relized that a cell phone can't make it to heavn even if I dialed a perfact 7.
I love you and you will ALWAYS be in my heart. I love you so much... Binky..

WORDS CAN'T EXPRESS WHAT YOU HAVE MEANT TO ME AND OUR ENTIRE FAMILY! FROM DAY ONE YOU HAVE ALWAYS INSTILLED IN ME THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY AND MOST OF ALL JESUS CHRIST! I'LL NEVER FORGET YOU AND YOUR DEDICATION TO THE FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES YOU'VE SHOWN IN YOUR LIFE. IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS YOU DID THAT MADE YOU SO SPECIAL GRANDMA. U DIDN'T HAVE TO SIT OUT IN THE COLD, RAIN, SLEET AND SNOW TO WATCH YOUR GRANDSON PLAY IN HIS LAST HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME, BUT YOU DID! YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL ME JUST TO SEE HOW I WAS DOIN IN COLLEGE, BUT YOU DID!
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART AND AS I CONTINUE ON IN LIFE BETTERING MYSELF AS A BLACK MAN IN SOCIETY, I WILL ALWAYS TAKE TIME OUT TO REFLECT BACK AND REALIZE THAT I AM SOMEWHAT OF THE MAN I AM TODAY BECAUSE OF YOU!
WATCH OVER ME GRANDMA!!!
I LOVE YOU!!!
