March 16, 2026 at 11:30 amGrandma was such a light to everyone who met her. She was definitely an entertainer and everyone loved being around her. Her jokes and spunk always kept a smile on my face. From the games of “never have I ever” we played it is safe to say she lived a fun and eventful life. Despite the awful nicknames she gave, she loved those she met and would do anything she could for them. I will greatly miss her! Although I never got to meet her husband, she spoke very highly of him. I’m sure she had a wonderful reunion and he couldn’t have been ready for the amout of laughter and stories she was bringing with her.
