My prayers go out to the family I pray you all will have peace and comfort in this time of loss, You all are always in my thought and prayers.
I love you so much, grandma. I’m going to miss you. Things will never be the same. You were such an inspiration to me, always pushing me to do well, in school, in life, in writing. I’m finishing this book I’m working on and I’m dedicating it to you. I wish you could read it, see it in print one day, but you always believed I would finish something big and get it published. You knew I would do it even though you never got to see it. You believed in me so strongly that there was never any room for me to doubt myself. Thank you for that and for everything. You made my world so much brighter than it ever could have been without you. You are light and love and inspiration. I love you.
