Nellie you were my mother in law the day I married your son. I never got to thank-you for all the things you have done. You gave me a great man, with whom I share my life. I'll never forget how much I owe you
for all the love you brought into my life.I know you will be watching us from the heavens above. I know you will be Rerun's guardian angel from above. But most of all you were my rare jewel of a mother in law. You will always be in my heart.

The loss of my mamaw is not something any of us were ready for. She was more to all of us than just a grandmother. She was a great woman, and we will miss her terribly. While we all know she is in a better place now, it does not make it any easier to deal with the loss.
