Thank you for not only being my grandmother but also my friend. You were always here for me, even at 2 am sometimes. I will miss our late night conversations. and I will always love you. You taught me to have strong family values, and I will carry them with me forever. I will continue to honor your memory and we will keep your memory alive for generations. I love you so much.
I am sorry for your loss. Mary and I are cousins. She and I were born the same year. My thoughts are with you. Her picture shows a happy woman and I am thinking she will be missed.
