My name is Gina Elizabeth Monteiro i am the oldest Grand-daughter of Olive M. Arruda (Coelho) i created this memorial to show my love, my respect for my grandmother, who held my heart in hers, i shared everything with her and it got ripped away from me on May 1, 2006, i felt like everything i had known about love through my grandmother was taken, she taught me from an understanding age that it's ok to love but it's also ok to be a stern, fair person with those close to you and distant to you. My grandmother was the most loving, kindest, funny, woman you ever wanted to meet, all my friends adored her as much as i did and still do, what bothers me is that i didn't get to say goodbye to her the way i wanted to and i have a small poem to show my missing her so much it's not much but here it is:


Darkness

please, please don't go, but you did
i got down on two knees and held your hand in mines, i looked up to the sky and begged God not to take you from me, but he needed an angel, then my emotions and love for you poured out, life without you has been a desert a howling wilderness, the light from my life is now watching over me, but is no longer shining back at me, my world without you has been so dark and heavy as well as my heart. Dearest Grandmother i miss you everyday of my breathing life and if i could say one thing to you again I Love U.
