A Tribute From A Granddaughter
I love my Grandmother with all my heart. I enjoyed her home-cooked meals. She was always concerned about my health and well-being, involved in my schoolwork and all aspects of my life. Now that I know she's in God's hands, I try to remember her and the good times the best way I can. Rest in peace, Mama-T.
