My sweet and beautiful Gram Gram, who had a hand in raising me and my sister. She loved the LORD, was the first to tell me about Jesus. She made the best strawberry pie and loved her grandbabies with all her heart. Had tons of pictures of them all over. We had yearly family reunions with all of the family and had the best time. She loved her roses and grew pear trees, they were delicious. She always took such care in the small things, from decorating presents for Christmas and playing Christmas music on her record player as we peeled pecans. LOL She would keep lots of scented body spray in her bathroom and me and my sister would always sneak in and spray ourselves all the while denying it. I miss her so much and she was just a gem to be around. She really loved the LORD and I look forward in seeing her again in Glory.
