Grandma, You will be deeply missed. It is still so hard to believe the 3 of you are gone. My memories of you are the best of my childhood. I remember spending the night with you and grandpa often. Waking up to the sounds and smells of sizzling bacon and the whispers of you and grandpa talking in the kitchen. I adored you! Sitting on the pourch counting the freckles on your arms. I remember coming over with all 4 my little girls and you would say that they reminded you of your sisters. One time the 4 of them went in your spare room and made kiss marks all over your glass mirrored closets. You told my dad you left their little kisses there for weeks before wiping them off. That you would just giggle every time you went in the room and saw their little lips. Grandma I know you, grandpa, dad as well as all your family who have passed before are all rejoiceing in love up in heaven. Watch over me and my family until we meet again. I love you and miss you!
