Peapa,
You are greatly missed. The day you passed on,you took a piece of us with you. I only hope you are at peace and are watching over us. It will never be the same with out you. I miss going to visit you and finding you in the garage with the boys working on an old car you found. I miss your funny ways,and your jokes you always came up with.I also miss asking you about my car,and telling me what was wrong,and saying to bring it to you,and showing me just how to fix it.
My memories of you will always be with me.You will never be forgotten,not even that little smile you had when we all walked into the house to see you.
love always,your granddaughter,Sis.
