I love you and I miss you mom, you will never be forgotten.
Grandma- you are so loved & missed. One of my favorite memories of you is when we would have sleepovers & play Yahtzee together. You had so many children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren yet you made each of us feel so unbelievably special. We love you so much!! Finding some peace in knowing you are with our Heavenly Father and we will see you again someday
My favorite memories are simple ones. Smiles and conversation over coffee in the early morning. Teasing and laughing over King’s corner. Waiting at the door when we drive up. Serious talks about life and kids and grandkids. You were a sweet, sweet lady. I will miss you. Love you. Ron
Grandma, you are so missed!! My favorite memories are staying up late with you. Everyone else would go to bed and we would sit up and talk and giggle. Then we would realize it was too late and stay up some more. I loved our late night chats. I find peace in knowing you are with me everyday day now and we can have the same talks all day everyday. I love you so much!
