I am so grateful to have been loved by a woman as incredible as my grandma! She was my favorite road trip buddy - Pointer Sisters & paper maps! She shared so much with me through our visits over my life. It meant so much to come to know her as Nana as new generations were born into the family. She shined as bright as the sun and always felt even warmer.

I have known Pat since ! was 6 months old!! Through a picture that I have.. We both stay with her aunt marge, sister and cousin. We went through grammer school, Jr High and high school. We unfortunaty oonly go together every five years ar class reunions. We never lost contact as we alway coresponded at Christmas. Pat's Mom Emily was a big part of my life and delivered my first son.
