You are my best friend. I know how happy you are to be with GG again. You have taught me to be a strong woman and to never give up. You never gave up no matter how hard times were. You are the most considerate person I have ever known. Gosh, I am going to miss your smile. I am going to miss you telling me its okay when things get rough. You are my hero and my strength. I am going to carry our memories in my heart the rest of my life. I will always be “your angelgirl” and now you are my guardian angel. I love you so much Mamaw.
Say hi to GG for me 🙂
