Gary: just heard about your Mom, so sorry, I thought she might be like Loretta was and make it to 103. She is back with Harry and I know no aches and pains. She worked hard for this rest. It is tough being the last one of your immediate family. After mom passed, I lost my husband....so I know the place you are in. God's blessings and my love!!!

Grandma it is still hard to swallow that you have moved on. You have touched many lives with your stories. We have shared alot of stories together and many that were not told. The South Side will not be the same without you, but your momory will live on forever. We will still be able to see you from the front window. looking towards the hillside. You now have the time to spend with grandfather to charish your times together.
