Dear Grandma, Happy Birthday to my January birthday pal. I miss you. Timmy and I and Ben, Philip and Colby miss you. I am happy that you were able to come to visit us in Rutland so many times and I will always remember your little waving hand as you drove away with Grandpa or Linda. We were all blessed to have had you for so many years, it was so hard to let you go. It was time Grandma, wasn't it. We will be together again one day, I just know it. Until then, you are and always will be a very big part of us. Love Always, Donna
