Having been in this family for 50 years now, I want to say it was a gift that she gave to each of us being the Mother and Grandmother that she was. She was an inspiration to our kids and grandkids and it is things that they will carry throughout their lives. Also, she will be missed more than she could ever imagine but we sure have the wonderful memories that she left with us to help us make it through. God has been good to her and to her family and one day we plan to be with her once again. Love as always to Mama G., Nancy
