Dear Grandpa & Uncle Pete,
Sending you a big hug across the miles! Some of my favorite memories ever are of meeting you both & Grandma in IL. I will miss her lots, especially our phone calls when she would tell me to sit still while I was talking. She always knew I couldn’t sit still. She was the best Grandma ever & I am thankful for all the great memories & love she leaves with us.
Love,
XOXO
