One can learn a lot about unconditional love and warmth by being with Grandma. The world always a little brighter when she was around, no matter how dark things seemed to be. You always felt safe and that's a rare thing. Thank you Grandma for being there when we needed your smile. The sound of your laugh will always echo in our hearts.
She was a beautiful lady, both inside and out. A very loving wife and mother. I have many good memories of her being the mother of my very best friend. She will be greatly missed by all.
