I will miss you forever Grandma Peggy, but I know that you are at peace now and that is what I have wished for you. I bet you've got on sparkly shoes and you are dancing the night away with Poppop. Or maybe you are busy decorating your Christmas tree exactly how you like it with hundreds of lights in the perfect spots and loads of beautiful ornaments.
All my love,
Heather
