There are a lot of things that remind me of Auntie, but I'll have to smile every time that I see a University of Kentucky pom-pom. I can just picture her shaking that blue and while thing with that left hand and a big smile on her face!

I loved my Keta so very much. One of the greatest Grandmother a child could ever had on this earth. A lifetime and memories and love. I will miss her till I see her again. So glad she is in her heavenly home surrounded by all our loved ones who were there to receive her and celebrate her.
