Grandma, I can't believe you are really gone. I miss you so much already. I miss our long talks and seeing you smile when I walk through the door to your room. I would give anything to hear you say that you love me one more time. Don't worry about Grandpa. All of us will take good care of him. If you are with my Dad, could you give him a big hug for me and tell him how much we miss him and Grandpa Kappell and Uncle Joe. Someday we will be together again. Until then, watch over all of us. Especially Grandpa. Keep a hand on me so that someday, I may have a family of my own. I love you and miss you. Trina
