Nataly…I am so glad that I got to meet your dearest grandma recently. I know she is now with your grandpa and no longer in any pain and discomfort. I have your family in my prayers and thoughts. So much love was given by both of your grandparents. Denise – I love you like my mom. Josh and Haylee – I consider you my family too. I hope you all can feel some peace in knowing that she did not suffer and passed peacefully. Take time to lean on each other and reminisce about all the memories from your dearest family member. May you find peace and comfort in all the memories.
