We miss you so so much grandma, it's really crazy to believe that when we walk up the ramp were not going to see you sitting in your chair, but we are happy that you don't have to suffer anymore and that you are finally at peace. Thank you so much for the advice throughout the years and the great memories we had together. Rest in peace grandma dora.

I cannot describe the void we all have in our hearts now that you are gone. You were and always will be such a huge part of our lives. You were loved and cherished by so many, and touched everyone's life in a different way. Your heart and soul was full of spunk, sass, and down right amusement, and your humor will be greatly missed! Rest easy pretty lady, God knows you deserve some peace. We love you and miss you greatly!!
