Grandma, Thank you for everything you’ve taught me and for all the memories you’ve given me. I couldn’t have asked for a better grandmother, you made everything so special and exciting even after I was no longer a child. You will be missed dearly. I love you more than words can say. I’m happy you’re finally home.
