Grandma was such an incredible women always there for her family even with 1000's of miles in between. Just thinking of her voice, her smile, her laugh makes me smile a little bit. She was such a beautiful women inside and out her whole life. So amazing and inspiring with her adventures seeing where her life took her. All the grandsons I'm sure dreamed talking sports with a grandma who knew what was up, and she knew the game better than them! Always made me laugh when she talked about the Bucks. I can't express how greatly missed she will be, but we all know how much we love her and how much she loved each and everyone of us. We are certainly lucky people to have know her. I remember the countless trips to Connecticut for Thanksgivings and Christmas's and how absolutely wonderful they really were. So many great and hysterical moments there and on the way. Our trips to Florida which brought us all together those times. We would have never had those experiences without her , never met all the cousins and uncles we had the chance to meet if not for her and those get togethers. That's what your grandparents do is give you these amazing memories to hold onto forever and hope one day we can do the same for our grandkids. I am so blessed with all those memories of which I am extremely grateful for. She will always be in our hearts and watching over us. We will hold onto those precious memories for life those can never be taken away. At the end of the day I am so fortunate to have had such a wonderful Grandmother and had the years that I did get to experience with her. She will be missed by so many. I love you with all my heart grandma.
