Posted at 08:51h, 24 MarchFor the last 5 or so years, I am beyond blessed to have had the opportunity to get closer to Gram than ever before -I made a decision to leave KY a long time ago, which naturally put a gap in our relationship. But since then, my heart is filled with joy and peace making me even stronger through our conversations & amazing visits. It makes me happy to know Skyler who’s a young adult now, got to come back with me and get to know this amazing woman, experiencing her humor, strength and love we all know and cherish. Making me realize in the recent years, that I got a lot of admirable qualities like strength and independence from Gram. Also want to shine light on my Uncle Russ and Aunt Diane for being an incredible support system for Gram, allowing her to still live independently on her own at 97! She sure did live a fulfilled life!
