I remember her and papas 60th aniv. She had so much fun and she loved to hear her grandchildren and great grand children singing to them.

My memories of holidays at mamaws and papaws house are very dear to me. We have always been close to them. I remember when she used to run me out of the kitchen because i was picking at the turkey.

I know i didnt usually comeover and see her all the time which now i wish i did but had so many good memories about her. I remember like it was yesterday when she russtles my hair and give me a kiss on the cheek and call me turkey. She lit up the room no matter what mood was in the air. she was the center of attention all the time cracking jokes or just telling lifetime stories that we always love to hear. But i think the one thing that made her happy was to see her great grandson(me) to sing kareoke for her and james kirkland on their 50 year anniversary. I remember like yesterday i was singing smoke rings in the dark while her bright face came to the front and was waving at me then i started to tear up as well as she did. everytime i think about that moment i smile then cry. but i know shes sitting on a bench behind them pearly gates with her mother just reuniting and talking and waiting for all of us to reunite with them. R.I.P grandma ill see you soon you will be missed

I remember how sweet and loving grandma always was when she came to visit us in Florida. She always treated my children like she could eat them up.
