The world lost a truly righteous woman who taught me so much that this post cannot do her justice for all she did not only for me but for so many others even outside our immediate family. I am a seamstress because my Gram took the time to teach me a skill for life. Even if I can’t walk, I could still make beautiful things on the sewing machine and give evidence of the fruits of her labor to patiently instruct me to be productive in all I do. She was more than my Grandma, she was our role model and protector. A true saint of Jesus Christ. Until we all gather in heaven I will miss her dearly.
