I have so many memories it’s hard to just share one. There are so many things in my home that remind me of you every day. From roosters to magnets on my fridge to every day I take a multivitamin. I am so thankful for the fact that I had you as my Grandymother and the kids and I will miss you but we know that you’re at peace and no longer in pain. Please say hi to my dad for me. We love you.
