Mom mom you have been an awesome grandmother. You were there when I was sick or wanted to talk to, and solved problems when I needed help. You were also a fun babysitter when you took me, Angie, Dalton, and Nick to the local parks and when you did small trips with us. You always loved to treat us with goodies. We had fun with you when you cooked and baked anything, especially around holidays dipping Easter Eggs or baking cookies around Thanksgiving and Christmas! I will never forget all those wonderful memories. You are with your brothers now. Go in peace with Jesus. Love you always mom mom.
