When I think of all the memories I share with my grandmother I can't help but smile and my heart is filled with warmth and all I can think about is how much love I have for her, and how she made such a difference in so many lives. She has a kind and loving nature that reached out and touched many people. As she is greatly missed in this life. I know that she will continue to make a difference and influence those who she is now with. I send my love in my absence.
