I love my Grandma. 👵
Agnes, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. I know it is a hard road to travel. I lost my mom 2 years ago and it has been a struggle. Remember that God has his loving arms around her and she is in no more pain or sorrow. Remember the memories of all the times you shared with her. I remember times when you would bring in what i called meat pastries. I loved those little meat pockets. Take care and God bless you and your family

My dearest Gramma Isabel. From the first time I met you 11 years ago, I felt a special connection with you. The fact that you accepted me as your “granddaughter” meant more than I could ever imagine. One of my fondest memories of you were visiting you at Four Seasons and using my Google Translate app to communicate with you. Let’s just say it was a frustrating but special time together. 🙂 Thank you for the beautiful scarf and hat you crocheted for me. I wear it every winter and get multiple compliments on it. I proudly say it was from my “Gramma Isabel”
You were a wonderful matriarch of your family and will be very missed. However, we do not say goodbye, but rather, we will see you again in Heaven as you watch over your loved ones.
Te amo abuela.
