To a sweet grandmother who I will always remember. The good times and the sad. The smell of her perfumes and of course the Homemade bread. The lick on the britches and of course the lick of the beader blades after a few trills in the chocolate frosting. The nervous twitch you had with the curtains folding them in your hands, and daulting a tune from the old hymns.
The sweat from your brow as you tilled the garden. and of course the sweat from your brow, tilling the hearts of all your children's hurts and weeding out their pain. A wonderful inspiration to us all even the ones who have gone astray, we can still and always will hear your voice say, come on in it is supper time.You always lended a hand to anyone who reach out and to those who could not. you are one great person who I love and will miss greatly. To her children we send our prayers and condolences. Goodbye for now Grandmother, see you in Heaven.
