I am so thankful for Grandmas big heart. I dont know what I would have done without her. When my parents weren’t around she was my stand in Mother and Father. I will love you forever and always. Every time I see a pine tree I think of the one we planted in your yard, that’s still there to this day. Every time I see flowers tomatoes I think of you. Your garden was always immaculate. ALL the neighbors were jealous. I’m so happy you finally are reunited with George and Foxie. I promise you I will take every lesson you taught me to heart and be the best woman I can be. You taught me well and you never gave up on me….even when I gave up on myself. You’ll never truly understand what you were to this family, you were the glue that held us together. We all miss you so much and always will. I hope you got to meet God like you always wanted <3 I love you so much. Forever and always.
Mom, you told us more than once to be grateful for what you have, food on the table, a job, a roof over your head, and family. Its so true.
I will always remember you with your flowers as they were always the best looking flowers on the block (due to your green thumb)!
I love and miss my friend and Mom! xoxo
Mom you have taught us so many things in life. Thank you for being our rock. We have all grown up as independent adults. That’s what you always said. Enjoy heaven with Sparky and Dad. Watch over us.. Love you Mom xoxox
Can’t believe you are gone. I miss you so much! Everytime I see flowers I will think of you. I know how much you love your flowers. You are forever in our hearts!
Love you MOM!
