To Grandma Oh my sweet Grandma Ida, Lord only knows how much I'm going to miss you and cherish our conversations about life and all the great advice you always gave me. You always told me how proud you were of me and that meant so much to me. My heart is filled with grief and gratefulness. Grief your no longer here with me but so grateful I had the honor of being blessed with a loving grandmother like you. You were the best grandma I could of ever had. I thank God I had you this long. There isn't a day that will go by I won't think of you and miss you with everything in me. Thank you for always showing and telling me how much I meant to you. You meant everything to me as well. I will always be Granny's baby and you will always be my everything.
