Grammie--
We have many memories with you, but there are a few that immediately came to me: your scavenger hunts every time we came over (it is amazing how clever you are to think of such creative clues and write them in a way that we had to hold them up to the mirror to read them), you teaching us how to sew pillow cases while eating homemade popcorn, and you and Papa doing the twist/mashed potato at our surprise 16th birthday party. You are so witty and so very wise. Your kindness is evident in how you serve others and in all that you do. Except when playing catch phrase :) Just kidding---had to throw that in there! I admire the Godly woman you are---you've shown us how to live out God's Word instead of just reading it. Your words to others are uplifting, honest, and quite often very humorous. (I catch myself saying "Grammie-isms" such as din din, pessies (presents), etc.) We love you and celebrate your 75 years of life! What a family legacy you have made!

If my favorite newlyweds say it is my birthday, then it must be true. How amazing, the things you remember, Shannon, when I didn't even know you were watching. With all you've got to do, I am touched that you took time to honor me here.
