You were like a second grandmother to me. Your cooking; your bedding, your stoires, they will all be missed!! You've known me since I was nearly a baby. You were the sweetest person, anyone could know. And it was an honor to share many memories with you, throughout the years. Thank you for everything you've ever done for me. I will look back and smile, on those precious memories, of the Summer Days, with You: Curtis, Katy, Susie, Walter, Little Curtis at Sebago Lake. I Love You Grandma Viola!!! x0x
