The sound of her laughter can still be heard. She was full of life and very outgoing. She brought joy, laughter, and a willingness to help a friend or stranger.
One can always remember her quote, “now I’m gonna tell you this”.
She could not go anywhere without seeing someone she knew and bring a smile to their face. Her magnetic personality was captivating and always left a lasting impression.
Grandma will forever be in our hearts. We will miss you mama.
