My Dear Beautiful Best Friend (Grandma),
I will forever carry you in my heart ❤️
You taught me so much, on how to live, love, and smile through all my pain. To focus on raising my children, and how to feed them and support them with nothing.
It was my greatest honor to help take care of you and love you not only in your final days, but in the years that you needed me most. I remember taking you for haircuts and saying “Here Grandma, I’ll hold your hand just as you did mine so many years ago, I will not let you fall”! You need not worry about us we all will be ok! You where such a beautiful, and amazing Grandmother, and I now get to model after you with my own! Fly high Grandma! I love you a bushel and a peck!
