I can't believe it's been two years already since we lost you. Not a day goes by where you don't cross my mind. You are the best grandmother, and I am so blessed to have created so many memories with you.
I love and miss you so very much.

We will love and miss you forever. You weren´t supposed to go so soon mama!! I have to accept this and the only thing that is helping me make it through this is because you are no longer in pain. I held your hand until the end. You were there with me when I took my first breath and I was with you when you took your last. I am so thankful my boys had so many amazing years with you and have so many good memories to pass on to their kids one day. You were the best mother and grandmother and I know you are in heaven with all the people who went before you and I know they all welcomed you back home. Please watch over us. I will always be your baby. Love you mean it. Lumi!!
Linda xoxo

Her voice is forever with me--clear, powerful, and beautiful--electrifying an auditorium full of students at Hanover High School. She sent chills through all of us with her magnificent gift of song. I am so sorry for your loss.
