She was such a great and caring grandma. I will miss her so much. The day I heard she passed my mind started flooding with memories and made me want to make sure my children get to experience all of the memories her and grandpa supplied to me. She was always spoiling us grand kids and never had an unkind word about anyone. She was loved by so many and treated everybody like family and every child like they were her grandchildren. I love you grandma and will miss you forever. Until we meet again. Love Marc.
