Services
There are no events scheduled.
Even though you've been gone for quite some time grama I still feel your love as if I just left the farm. So many people down here feel that way. You touched so many lives and set such an incredible example for us. The older I get the more I realize how special you are. Thanks for looking out for me in life and from above. There have been times over the last 20 years where I'm positive you helped me see the next sunrise. I love you and miss you all the time.
