Oh Grandma..... I had an incredible birthday. I sold my first house in
an almost unbelievably soft market. Others might wonder what contributes
to this kind of success. For me it was encouragement. All my life you
offered it. It was the simple things that have remained present even
when I have not believed in myself. You repeated them each and every
time I saw you, as well as every year on my birthday (which you never
failed to phone). The 3 simple things ... "Angee you're so smart! .....
I'm so proud of you , &.... I love you so much! I remember the times
you would reach out and squeeze my hand, and really could have used a
hug or some encouragement yourself. I was thinking "ewe ,yuck" do I have
to hug and kiss and say sweet things to grandma? (Uh... Just like my
Sasha does with her grandma .....Ya think?) Many of us would like to
turn back the hands of time, just even for a minute to offer that same
encouragement and of course the so deserved hug. As discouraging and
hurtful as you have watched many of us behave with one another we really
do know better and we understand the impact of sharing the simple
"encouragement legacy".
Grandma did I ever tell you?
"You are so smart, I am proud of you and I
love you so much!!!!!

Grandma, There are no words to express the unconditional love you you gave everyone around you, or the love I have for you. You were never without a smile or a kind word. You have always inspired me throughout my life to be myself and you brought peace to my heart with each hug we shared. The memories I have for you will forever touch my heart. Thank you Grandma for blessing our family throughout the years of your life and for all future blessings to live life genuinly.
Love, Your Granddaughter Mia Bia.

To grandma June who lived a simple life with her loving husband my grandfather Danny. She taught me one of life's biggest lessons it is not what you have in life it is who you have around you to spend each day with. Grandma you never had a bad word to say about anyone.I am proud to be your namesake and will do my best to be the loving person you taught me to be. Love you forever your grandaughter June
