It's been many years. I remember as a little girl the saying "Ida the spider the billy-goat rider" not quite sure who made it just remember we would have lots of laughs. I also remember the day Elvis died - not because of him I was just a little girl - I remember how much you cried and how sad you were for quite some time. I bet you probably already have front row seats at his next concert!! You have fought long and hard and overcame many bumps in the road now it's time to rest and be at peace. After that concert, tell Grandma "hey" from me. My thoughts and prayers go out to your close family through this difficult time.
