"Grandma"

You had a secret
But you wore it on your sleeve
For all the world to learn from
And all the world to see

A heart that was kind
And gentle, but strong
A heart that stayed open
And sang its own song

A heart that saw goodness
And was truly good
A heart that always had faith
And encouraged others when it could

A heart that shared extraordinary memories
And inspired me to make my own
A heart that listened
And supported me as I have grown

A heart that loved her family
And touched everyone she met
A heart that made you feel special
In ways that you could never forget

A heart that’s now up in heaven, where it belongs
Because it was a heart of an angel all along
My Grandma lived a long active, happy life through age 103. She was one of a kind!
