Dear Grandma, Thank you for being the precious Grandma that you were to us. Thank you for making each one of us feel special and like you had all the time in the world for us. Thank you for your example of strength and godliness in whatever situation, no matter how wrong, came into your life. I will always hold a special place in my heart for our times together and I thank you for doing your best, to be a Grandma to each one of us.
I love you and I would have given anything to have seen your reunion with Grandpa and the boys. I can only imagine. I was so happy for you! I look foward to seeing you soon.

Thank you Grandma for your quiet gentle way. Your faithfulness to Him has been honoured through the generations. I saw the standing ovation given to you as you were arriving in heaven, then God said to me, no greater joy than this. How awesome it must be to see men as trees through your spiritual eyes and now know why you were created. Thank you for the wonderful cherished memories. See you soon. xxoo

To my dear Mom, Aunts and Uncles, I am deeply sorrowful in the death of your Mom and my Grandma. I have nothing but wonderful memories of Grandma. She has instilled in my Mom, who instilled in me, the pure qualities of a Proverbs 31 woman. I am so glad she met my children, her great Grandkids, and my husband Karl. I will continue to pray that God will give us, especially you all, a peace that surpasses all understanding in this difficult time. I love you all very much.
