GoodBye GrandMa

My dearest Grandma, I will never forget
you & sorry that I was not there with
you when you passed.

Grandma...I can't believe The last kiss,
The last "goodbye" was yesterday...
Your death was a shock,
I know that you are gone for now
I really just do not believe how.
I called you all that week
You told me that you were not weak.

I called you before you died just
before an hours and you are okay my dear!!
I came to you and held your hand.
I saw your angel face like an angle
sleep in the bed, the kiss Good bye
was so hard for me...

You passed away my dear, my best friend,
and after this kiss There is a grief & void
in my heart now....

You hold a special place right here in my
heart & that will never change. You were
the best grandma in the world & to me
you still are. I miss & love you dearly.

I miss your voice & miss your smile,
I miss your warm embrace.

Grandma...I can't believe you're gone. I still
wait for your call as every day, your
telephone ring with warm sound...

I am thankful for our wonderful memories
we have together, Thank you for all the
things, your pure heart, kindness and
love, while I was growing up...

I miss the gently smile on your face
I miss the softly warm inviting heart
I miss the family love Gathering house
When I look back on these years
I wish there were a key I could find
I wish there were a sky I could fly
To the past back to those days
Without you now there is no place
for me in your home, without you
I can't stay alone, you're the only
one was so dear to me..

My grandmother was my life, after my
grandmother passed away, And the
realization brings tears to my eyes,
More heartache than I have ever felt before.
Though it seems impossible right
now, I must remember that all she ever
wanted was for me to be happy. How
fortunate I was to have had my
grandmother for so many years.

She was a very good grandma.

She will be remembered for her
kindness, generosity, and selfless
devotion to us.
I shall cherish our memories!
I love you Grandma! I'll never
ever stop praying for you..

I will always be missing you,
Hope to see you soon in my dreams.
And hopefully one day in heaven
but until then, you will always be
in my heart. In my heart I hold you inside.

Wonderful memories you left with me,
smiling face I can see. We all love you dearly

Bye bye grandma, you are the most
wonderful lady purely and truly..

With love
Your granddaughter
