  1. My dear grandmother,

    It's almost been a year since you left this world behind. I think of you so often, and cry every time I do. I wish you were still here with us. I miss you so much. It still does not feel like your gone. It feels like yesterday that were all sitting together having a good laugh. You were so good at putting smiles on everyone's faces. Anyone who had the opportunity to know you was truly blessed. I wish Zebulin would've gotten to know you more. He would've loved you so much. I remember the first time he met you, he sat right on your lap. He had never done that before. Even though he was too young to understand, I think he already loved you. I've just been thinking about you so much here lately. I guess it's because it's getting so close to the first anniversary of your death. Almost one year now...and my heart still aches. At least you're in a better place now and you are no longer in pain. I love you so much, and I will see you again someday. <3

  2. My dear grandmother,

    It has been almost a year since you've been gone. I think about you all the time. I miss your good advice and your laugh. I miss the way you made us laugh. You had such a big heart and there are so many people who miss you. I love you so much. It still doesn't seem like your gone. I think about you often, and it seems to always bring tears to my eyes. You had such a beautiful heart. I am so grateful to have had you in my life for as long as I did. I love you and I miss you so much. Rest in peace, my wonderful grandma.
