Grandmas Karen, as she’s always been to me always took my shopping with her. My grandpa would come pick me up every other Saturday and if I stayed the night she’d always have dinner made for all of us. She absolutely will be missed, especially by her husband, I don’t ever remember them being separated many times at all. We love you.
