We were always inseparable. There's things in my day to day life currently that still remind me of her,I like to think that she visits me as birds and butterflies. Whenever I see a red cardinal I say "It's my maw-maw", i compare her to butterflies because they're soft and delicate just like she was. She truly had a heart of gold and is deeply missed. When she left it was like my world fell apart and i felt as if i'd never hear or be seen by her again, that all changed when I started to feel her presence more and more. Forever loved and missed. Rest easy grandma I love you to infinity.   #3 from: Skylar Clanton AL skylarjae68@gmail.com Wed, Nov 23, 2022 at 11:58 PM It’s been two years, two years since you closed your eyes forever, two years since you took your last breath. Two years since half of my whole heart vanished. There’s no more visits, no more Walmart trips, no more card games, no more watching the price is right, no more morning coffees, no more visiting ruby. I miss You beyond words. 💙 View Older Condolences >> Condolences       to #1 from: Valerie Morris Gahanna Tue, Nov 24, 2020 at 4:29 PM As the days and time go by, let the cherished memories bring a smile and warm your heart and bring you comfort for your loss.
