Grandma,
How I adore you. You bought much joy to my life. The time we spent together was never wasted. I learned so much from you. You were responsible for so many fond memories. I was blessed to not only have your as my Grandmother but also my best friend. We had so many great adventures shopping, gardening, berry picking, Christmas light “peeping” and the list goes on and on. How i loved to see you smile. May that smile be present today in Heaven.
To my wonderful Aunt Mary,
Your love and care for “Gma” these past 15 years never went unnoticed. As her needs increased you never gave up. Your constant and faithful service to your mother was and still is a model for all to follow.
May God Bless this family as we mourn our loss and yet be comforted his divine plan for us all.
Love,
Darla
