Oh Grammy…. I don't know where to start. I'll start by saying you are one of the most amazing person I've ever met in my life. I never knew a stranger could become so special in my life and part of my family. You left too quick-this world would've benefited to have someone like you in it but I know God needed you in heaven more. I would never forget the love that you brought to my life and to Gaby's life. Memories last forever. I don't say goodbye I say I will see you soon. Because the day that I leave this earth I will see you and will be close to you forever. I know you're probably baking a storm so when Gina, Dalton, Dave, Gaby and I arrive we will be welcomed with goodies. I will forever love you and I know I've gained a guardian angel.

I have only known Cindy for about the last 20 years. She did an amazing job of dealing with the challenges she had been given. I will never forget her contagious laugh. Cindy, you and I share two of the most beautiful and precious granddaughters. Watching them grow has been wonderful. Rest assured that I will continue to watch over them. Your job will now be that of their guardian angel. RIP Cindy, you will be missed. Brenda Olmstead
