My grandmother was one of the strongest women I've ever been blessed to know. She was always so faithful and trusted in the lord even though at times it may have been hard. She stood by her faith and made sure that her children as well as her grandchildren grew up and found their roots in the church community. I believe she had a postive impact on those who were lucky enough to ever meet and get to know her. She was a beautiful woman and had the kindest soul of anyone I know. I have always been really close to her. She was like a second mom to me and helped raise me. I loved going over to grandma's house any chance I could and hearing her tell me her life's stories and laughing at memories she would share. My life won't ever be the same now that she is no longer here. I will miss her voice and her presence everyday but I know she is at peace and she is in heaven where she has been working her whole life towards going. She is happy and with all of her loved ones who have gone before her. I will cherish our memories we shared together and I will hold her close in my heart. I love you always grandma.
