Maw Maw I can't even begin to express the sadness I am enduring at this very moment. I am sorry I wasn't there holding your hand this past weekend, but I know you understand. I am very grateful for the time that I recently spent with you prior to this weekend when you were feeling much better. I know that's the way you would have wanted me to remember you. You and I became so close the older I got. I am thankful to have known you and to have been lucky enough to have you in my life. You loved me unconditionally as you did all of your grandchildren. You had the biggest heart in the world. Thank you so much for always being there for me. You have helped me tremendously when nobody else would. Things I couldn't even get myself out of. Things that nobody even knows about....not even Mom and Dad. That is what a great grandmother does! I hope you know how much I appreciated all that you did for me. I also hope you know that there isn't a day that will go by that I will not think about you. You will leave a lasting impression on each and every one of us in your own special way. I find comfort in knowing that you are watching over me. Our father was ready for you to come home. I love you Maw Maw....Until we meet again. :)

My precious Maw Maw. I love you and miss you SOOO much already. I will hold dear to me all of my memories of you and Paw Paw. You pretty much raised us as kids....and you gave me my obsession with Elvis and old classic musicals that I've now passed down to my very own daughter. I'll always remember watching Elvis movies with you....and how you used to turn that huge record player on and dance with us in the living room. I miss you so much but I am so happy that you are no longer in pain. I told you, Paw Paw and Elvis were waiting for you behind those pearly gates. Give Paw Paw a hug for me. I know in my heart that you will be watching over me...and I have a great peace in knowing that. I love you my beautiful precious maw maw.
