On December 23rd my life changed forever losing one of the-most important people in my life and also to my family! Grandma was a shining star in our lives and will continue to be forever. It was an honor to have cared for her. I am so lucky to have had her in my life for 41 years. Grandma loved beyond words. Her smile and her hugs were contagious. So today grandma I want to say thank you for being all you were to me and for loving me unconditionally without any judgment. Thank you for being all I needed which is why I am all I am today. I promise to carry on your legacy for the rest of my life. Love forever your Nicole

Grandma you will be truly missed by many people. I always said that I wanted to be just like you when I get older and still do at 50. You have showed me to never judge, show kindness and help others. You will always be a role model to me. A strong and independent woman. Please tell my dad Hi.

Mom, where do I start? You are beloved by so many and you have shown kindness, love and compassion to everyone that crossed your path. Your enduring faith and love for God is an inspiration to all who knew you. You have left behind a mountain of crochet baby blankets all over the country, filling everyone’s special request. Many of us stay comfy at night with all the afgans made by your loving hands. You never met a baby that you could resist holding and cooing sweet words. You gave me life and I am eternally grateful that God gave me so many years with you. I got to see you gain strength thru hardships and joy in your face being with family. There is no one as special as the person you get to call Mom. See you sometime when my story ends
Love you forever . 🌹❤️

Oh my sweet friend how I will miss you with all my heart . To say it has been my honor & my absolute pleasure to have had you in my & my family’s life for the last 20 years would be an understatement. How lucky I was to spend a weekly visit with you, I loved all of your life stories and your beautiful smile . Together we went through love and loss & you always had a radiant positivity that I have never experienced in my life . You taught me how to trust in God and Mary and that they will always come through for you , as you just have to really believe . You have forever changed my life and I thank God for that. You were that person that just made me feel good whenever I was in your presence. I miss your hugs , and I thank you for being a bright light in my life . Till we meet again , love you forever .
