Grandma,

How I miss you already.  And you have only parted through the veil just hours earlier this morning.  You are in the arms of Grandpa.  I know you are still there and will be there for me.  Just knowing I could pick up the phone and talk to you brought so much joy to me.  You were not only my Grandmother but one of my closest friends.  I love you.  I will cherish every memory of the life we have shared.  I will look foward to seeing you once again.  You have been a great example to me and I want so much to be like you.  I love the way you loved everyone so freely.  How there was always room at the table for another person.  You took such great care of all of us.  I have sooo missed the Heber house and everthing we shared there.  I still eat licorice and like by rootbeer ice cold just the way you brought them to us, when you visited our camp site.  I will miss our trips to the store for a soda. I have so many of my memoried intertiwined with yours.  I will always remember you in our garden, in your kitchen, hanging out the laundry, quilting bees, canning, baking, the Swans man, Sewing, and I will forever here your voice reading me to sleep Brer Rabbit, and I will hear your voice above the rest singing in the choir of angels.   You have passed on a great legacy of love.  I will always hold your memory next to my heart.  Grandma  I love you more than I could ever say.
