"’"Grandma Mary", You will always have a special place in my Heart! I will always remember when we moved from Decatur to Phx. we were totally out of our elements, you made the transission so welcoming and you opened up not only your home which was already full of your own family member, but your gave your Heart and Kindness to us, that xmas would have been so empty if not for the LOVE you gave so willingly to our Big Family of 8 no less. When I hear your name I see the image of you in the kitchen bent over the stove trying to lift that big ole roasting pan out for an army ready to eat! Your smile was so reassuring and warm! The world was alot better place with you in it! Your legend will live on in each and everyone of your Family members and they will bless this world as much as YOU did for all of us! Love always,Terry & Carl"
