Sympathy to the family.
Today is such a sad day. I will never forget the good times I had with grandma. It's hard getting older and realizing that you can't get those moments back. I remember one of her visits to Virginia I was so sick and all I wanted to eat was french fries, and she drove to town and got them for me. She made a lot of trips to Virginia to see us, and even came to meet my daughter. It was funny because Madison cried everytime grandma came near her. I hope she is having a good time in heaven with grandpa and Tim.
One of the last times I saw Delores was at the Block Party here at Louisville. They had white squirrel tails. I got one because I was curious to what it was. {It was a deep fried Zero candy bar} Deloris walked up to me, and asked what I was eating. I told her, and she said," I gotta get me one of those!" Deloris always spoke when she saw you, and to me she was always family! Prayers and hugs!
Please accept our condolences for you loss. Prayers for peace and comfort for her family.
So very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers go out to all the family.
