It has greatly saddened our hearts that we have lost such a caring and loving person and friend to me. I love the way she always took care of her children and made sure they were clothed and fed. I will always remember going to grandmas place for support and advice. The funny jokes and the deep stories she would tell the kids about her family and life. I will remember her mostly by the passion she had for old cinema movies and music she loved. Still cant believe that your gone but now your up in heaven. I always tried my best when it came to helping out at the apartment in any way I could possible to make you comfortable. Rest in peace grandma love you Brad.
