My sweet, sweet, grandma returned back to our heavenly father on Monday night...she was seriously the greatest lady ever.... and still very young....She got cancer in Feb. and we all had such great hopes that she would beat it......she needed a bone marrow transplant, but she was not a good canidate for it, therefore, it slowly killed her...As hard as it was to see her suffer, I know now that she is where she needs to be, and what a great reunion she is having with her parents, and her son Andy....and all her ansestors for that matter. One day right before the 4th of July i was able to see her. She got nominated for Mother of the Year award for West Bountiful City, and she won..on the 4th she was suppose to ride in the parade, but because she was so sick, all of kids and grandkids got to ride in it.....It has been a hard couple of months, but i know that she is in a better place, and definately much happier. I just can't help but feel a little selfish, becuase I wish she could still be here....I love her so much, but I am so grateful for the gospel , to help us through these hard times....Thursday, July 31, 2008

I'm sorry for your loss. That is so hard! It's times like those that make me realize how grateful I am to be a member of the church and for the Plan of Salvation. That's great that she is now reunited with her son. I hope that this has been a good time for reflection! I am sorry again.

Hi Biggie. I'm super sorry to hear about your loss. That's pretty neat your Grandma won the Mother of the year award. That's a nice thing to have happen before her passing as a final reward and honor for the good woman it seems she was. She must have been loved by many. I hope you're doing okay, and the rest of your family too. Take care. My thoughts are with you!
She was so pretty. I'm so sorry for your loss, I know you were so close to her. I love you Biggs
I'm sorry to hear about your Grandma. I know how much you guys loved and admired her. I wish we could've seen you at Bear Lake, but I'm sure Lake Powell was just as much fun.
