My family near and far, first my thoughts are with everybody in the loss of Grandma. She was a special person and I have many great and fond memories of her, like parking a Peterbilt in her front yard when Cowboy and I came to visit between loads. And so many more memories of her and Grandpa-starting from when I was very young and we lived with them on the farm. Grandma was a great entertainer, and it came natural to her, I hadn't laugh so hard as when we spent time with her. We will miss her very much. My love to all.
