Grandma, I can't believe I am about to go to your funeral. It seems like a really bad dream. You are the best grandma ever and I love you so much. We have had some awesome times and made many special memories that I will never forget. You are amazing. You always spoke kind words to everyone and you always had a smile on your face. You have taught me so much. A piece of my heart is missing now but I know that it belongs to you and is with you in Heaven. You will be missed so much. What am I going to do now? I wish that I could just hug you one more time or bring you a snack one more time. I love you grandma and I always will. Thank you for beign the BEST grandma in the whole world. Love you forever, Jennifer
