    Thank you for the wonderful tribute to your Grandma, honey! She was an amazing person who truly loved her family. She did spoil her eight children, but those grandbabies could do no wrong (in her mind, anyway)– she truly loved us all! She was also the “world’s best cook” and no one ever left her house hungry — that homemade bread was the greatest! She will be truly missed by all who loved her, but she and Pap has left behind an amazing legacy to be carried on for generations. She was very proud of you and so am I –

    Love you,
    Mom
