Grannie,

I'll miss you more than words can say... and even though I am no longer the little girl in the nightgown who danced her legs off to the roar of your laughter..I still feel like the little girl lost without her Grandma... I'll always smile whenever I see a lemon meringue pie... you always knew it was my favorite.. and I'll stand proud remembering how your face lit up when I placed my own daughter in your arms just months ago..My only regret is that she didnt get her chance to dance her legs off for you... I love you grandma..

Ms. Dorothy was my mother-in-law for four years and became my best friend. She gave me some beautiful memories. She was/is one of the most wonderful people I've ever known. This entire wonderful family will always be dear to my heart. God be with you all.

Love,

Mary

Please know that I have your family in my prayers and you have my condolences, if there is anything I can do please let me know.

Losing a mother is one of the hardest things we have to do in life.

I am with you all in your grief.
