Grama,
I will love you forever,
I will love you for always,
as long as I live,
My Grama you'll be.
Gram...I have your hands...every time I look at my stubby fingers now I smile and I know you're smiling too.
I miss the Wicked Witch in the Middle of the Forest/fowest stories...I couldn't say my 'r's just yet....you and Grampa are always in my heart and my soul. When I am blessed with good dreams of you we are polka dancing our hearts out. I miss hearing your voice. I miss that you always loved me, unconditionally, I miss your and Grampas letters, and I really miss hearing you laugh and seeing you smile.
Grama, you were one in a trillion billon and you will be forever missed.
Thank you for blessing me with Grampa Erv!!! I couldn't have hand picked a better man for you!!!
I love you Grampa. Thank you for being so amazing to my Grama. Your love for each other was so inspiring!!
I love you

Erv - So sorry for your loss. I know Barb was the light of your life. She was a special lady that came along at the time when you needed that light. Every time I hear polka I'll be thinking about her.
