Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. I miss you and love you so much. I'm so sorry for everything that I did. You were the greatest, most loving woman I ever knew. I'll never get to tell you that. I love grandma forever and always.

I'm so very sorry for the loss to all of the family. I know she raised a great son in my friend Mike. It's so easy to say they're better off in Heaven, and it is. But very hard on the ones left behind. There is no such thing as recovery but maybe some easement for you all. I love the Crachey"s and wish you all the best.
