She loved lilacs, reading, gardening, rocking babies, being ornery and laughing. Growing up she just lived the next farm over from ours and we spent so much time together. She’s the reason I love Juicy Fruit gum, ham salad sandwiches, sweet tea and Texas sheet cake. I can always hear her voice singing ‘Oh how I love Jesus’. My heart grieved for her hard years ago when a horrible disease starting stealing her memories. I think today she would have been so happy looking down to see her family together & full of laughter after laying her physical body to rest next to Grandpa. She had saved this note I wrote to her decades ago and I thought it was too cute not to share. 🖤
