I will always cherish the memories I have of weekends spent with Big Grandma growing up (and Aunt Dawn too). Grandma may not have had much but I felt nothing but comfort in her home. After having small children myself, I have to wonder how she got any sleep with her grandkids sleeping with her and kicking her all night long. She never complained though. Thank you, Grandma, for the wonderful times! May you enjoy Eternal Life with love and peace.
