"Those special memories of you will always bring a smile to my face. I?m so thankful to have spent 25 years with my great grandmother. You are the true definition of love. You radiated kindness, and made me feel so special each time you visited. I will miss your hugs, and laughing with you. Most of all I will miss talking with you, and seeing you light up with joy. My eyes can no longer see you, but I will forever keep you in my heart. Until we meet again. "
In loving memory of
