  1. So many memories that I just don’t know where to begin. I had the pleasure of talking to grandma for my birthday 2 days before she died and I will never forget the words that we had and the memories we shared on the phone that night. She lived her life to the fullest and died a happy lady. Lots of love to the rest of the family at this time.
