Kathryn, Eddie and Irene, it was so wonderful to have met your Grandma at Kathryn and Erick’s wedding in Vero Beach. She was so lovely, so bright, so gentle and so proud of her children and grandchildren. It was obvious that she lived her life filled with joy and love. May her memory be a blessing and comfort to you, always.
