I miss you my Crazy Old Lady! It means so much to me to know you thought of me as the daughter you never had. I will miss your calls about nothing at all, just to say "Hi"! I miss our shopping trips and road trips. You were more like a mom to me than a Grandma. You are the best Grandma in the world. I am going to miss you so much. We all are. Tyler keeps asking to go visit you! We will all cherish the time we had with you and never forget you. You will live on forever in our hearts!
