I know I am one of luckiest people in the world to have someone so wonderful touch my life in so many different ways. I have so many memories of her and I hold them very close to my heart. She was my best friend. We would stay up late at night, sometimes into the morning, just talking and drinking Big Red floats…Just the other day I was thinking of her and looking forward to the day when I would see her again in heaven.
When I was just a child I found the poem displayed on this page in a magazine. I copied the poem on paper and sent it to my Grandma. She took this poem, put it in a frame and hung it on the wall where it stayed until she went to a nursing home. When my Grandma died I was asked by my Aunt to read this same poem at her funeral. I was grateful for the opportunity show my Grandma how much I loved her one more time before saying goodbye.
