To walk into your room and see you smile made everything okay! I would walk in and wait for that special hug that you would give every time!

You always made me smile and always had stories to tell. I loved sitting with you and listening to the memories you had to share.

You showed us that life can't be all that bad there is always a light at the end of a tunnel!

You were so strong, you had faith in us all, you had great spirit even thru the dull days of your illness.

I know you're in a better place now and you had to go, we feel so alone
but I know you're always close...when I feel the warmth at night I know it's you giving me a good night kiss before leaving you at night, when I feel my chest getting tight I know that’s you giving me that big hug, when I feel the wind brush through my hair I know that's you whispering hello to me, asking about the kids ..when I see the sun shine I know you're happy to be there with your family & friends, when I see that bright star at night I know that’s you watching over us all and smiling now as a beautiful angel keeping an eye on us all! Loosing you broke our heart and every day without a doubt I think of you and shed a little tear, for a person that was loved so dear!

If Grandma had a meaning
I'll tell you what it'd be
if you were close to yours
like mine was close to me

Grandmas are always there
to lend a shoulder and dry your tears
to comfort you in everything
and help conquer all your fears

Despite all the wrong you've done
and all the wrong you'll do
a grandma will always be there
and unconditionally love you

A grandma will inspire you
to follow your every dream
she tells you "�you wont be alone"�
because you're going to be a team

Grandmas are always busy
although their hearts are tame
they tell everyone about you
so everyone knows your name

Without grandmas we'd be lost
and our tears would not be dry
and we would not be encouraged
to spread our wings and fly

To my grandma I say "�Thank you"
My heart will always be
with you every day, and I know
you're here with me!
