Gram you will be dearly missed...of all the memories I have of you the fondest memories of my childhood will always be of going to Gram's house for Christmas Eve...there would be this tiny little tree displayed at her front window surrounded by mountains of gifts (most of them for her), and then there was the food, oh my gosh the FOOD! No one could fill your belly or your heart the way she did with her cooking and more importantly her love...and of course her sense of humor and her joyous spirit she could always make us laugh...and she had a smile that could brighten the darkest of places. She was thoughtful, encouraging, caring, gracious, and courageous, truly an inspiration to all who had the joy and honor of knowing and loving her. We will carry you in our hearts each and every day until we are together again in heaven for a feast that will surpass all feast. From Phil, Sarah, Rachel, and Marin we send our heartfelt prayers and undying love...Peace be with you Gram!
