It has been a year since you have been gone and I miss you more then anything. The girls and I made a memory garden for you and we sit in it often and talk about you. We planted your favorit, rose bushes, and they are blooming like crazy and I am sure you have something to do with that:) The last year has been tough knowing you will never be here to give advise and hang out with the girls and I. They miss you sooo much too and will never forget what a wonderful grammie they had. The really nice thing is we have so many memories of you and things you have gotten us in the years that you are always with us. Hailey remembers every little thing you have gotten her and Lexi that if it breaks she will get really sad and say "but grandma got that for me we can't through it away" and we don't.
We miss you more than words can say
Love always,
Say, Hailey & Lexi

Krissy,Mike,Monkey and Lexi, I am sorry about your Mom (Grandma,Sister,Aunt etc.) Her and I used to snuggle on the couch and cover up with a big blanket,she'd drink her Coke and watch "Little House On the Prairie" and "Bonanza" while we told each life stories (appropriate and inappropriate) We would laugh and make plans to wait for warm weather so we could take walks. I grew to love her grandbabies and we shared many hugs which I cherished as much as I did when I told Brenda goodbye each time I left. I will always keep you,Krissy, and your Mom and family in my heart. If you ever need me for anything, you have my phone#. Thoughts and Prayers...Cathy Rietveld
