Great Grandmother,
I will miss you dearly, you are loved. I will always hold the fond memories of our spaghetti dinners in the Fall when I was a young child and the memories of you. Those memories are what I will remember. I know you are in a better place and have your angel wings.
Love you!

Mattie
