In Loving Memory

Last week, the world suffered the loss of the greatest woman I have ever known, my Granny. Typewritten words cannot convey how wonderful she was or express how sad I am. How sad we all are. She touched the lives of so many and made our world beautiful.

But lucky for us, we have each other. Over the last 60 years, Granny and Pop created a loving, strong, close-knit family who will support each other forever. We will carry Granny with us wherever we go. And I can guarantee that every cup of tea sipped, every apple pie made and enjoyed, every kind, thoughtful deed carried out by us will be the legacies of Granny.

I was blessed to have her as my Grandma. I couldn't have wished for better. She is the perfect role model, and I will be happy to spend the rest of my life striving to live up to her generous, compassionate, selfless, gentle, lovely memory.
