My eldest Grand Daughter, April, was *Fearless*!! She was a quiet, but strong fighter; a survivor!! In her short lifetime, April won a hard battle against the Swine Flu. Her battle left her weakened in body, but never in her spirit!! April also fought against other issues that in our judgemental-type society made her stronger but yet never caused her to lose her gentleness or her loving, giving personality. When April suddenly lost her Mom-- her friend and supporter!-- that loss took a hard toll on our April. Now it up to those of us that miss and love her to follow in her example, and remain * FEARLESS*!!!! We will meet again,, sweetheart, when the time comes, until the I will be carrying you tucked deeply in my heart! I love you, sweet girl. Grandma C. ??????????
