My Grammy was one in a million,
she was one of the few who could put me to sleep when I was a baby by carrying me around doing the conga, her weekly visits doing all of the ironing, cause she loved ironing for some reason (watching Young & The Restless or CourtTV, while doing this of course), her and I decorating her house for Christmas every year, Handing out candy to everyone here at Halloween, her ability to keep my grandfather in check, when he could drive anyone batty, Her love for Penuche and Jewelry at Christmastime, her love to play bridge and to get her hair done. She was and will always will be one of the strongest people I will ever know.
Love You.
