Grandma,
To be in a room with you, was to be loved by you. The joy that radiated from you was electric, you were like a surge of joy.
You had the ability to make anyone feel like the only person in a room.
you loved us exactly for who we are. every morsel of our being, you loved us by-heart.
You embodied true joy, peace and kindness in a way i’ve never witnessed in anyone but you.
I feel like you were made to be a grandma. The kind people see in movies, the stereotypical most sincere grandma a person could dream up. How lucky were the 5 of us to be blessed with the best of you?
To try and list all my favourite times with you, moments i can still see, and hours spent playing with you would make a book. So i’ll just say, for now:
I’m so grateful you are my grandma, you are home to me. I love you forever.

Dear Grandma,
I know that you will never get to read this letter, but I am so glad that I had the opportunity over the past six months to reflect on these memories with you.
Well, I don’t remember it happening, but it’s something I will never forget. When I was a baby, you protected me from falling, and broke your tooth instead.
We talked about when I was little, and I used to come to your house in Norwood I would run in and check if there were any mice caught in the trap in the vent beside the couch.
We remembered how you always had great activity and puzzle books that captivated me every morning, while I waited until I was allowed to come wake you up.
We smiled as we thought about the times when you would take us to the park or the Peterborough Zoo. Every Christmas you filled special tins with goodies, one for each family member.
Whenever you had come for a visit in Chesterville, and I had to watch you leave. I cried every time, because I wanted to go with you, but I couldn’t follow.
You always talked about how I stayed with you to “look after you” when Grandpa went to Ukraine, even though we both know that you were the one looking after me.
I loved doing puzzles together out on the porch when I’d come to stay with you on the farm. You never failed to bake the most delicious treats, muffins, cakes, and more - something I’m daily grateful that you passed on to your daughter.
We remembered the time in church when you got sick and almost left us, and we thanked God for the many extra years we got to spend together.
Your love and support were unconditional – you were always my biggest fan. I miss your smile; I miss your prayers; I miss just holding your hand.
Like those days in Chesterville, when you left to go far away home, I cry as I sit here typing this, because you left to go home, and I can’t go with you. Well, not today, but someday, and when that day comes, I will follow, and we will hug each other when we meet again. (Nobody gives hugs like yours!)
Love,
Your “Little Honeybunch”

Deepest sympathy to you and your families Glen and Cheryl. Your mom is one of the people that I fondly remember from my youth through Beacon Books and church life. She was always kind and friendly and showed a genuine interest in others. Grieving is hard. I pray that as you go through your grief, you weep not as those who have no hope but rather as those who hold onto the hope of eternity. One day God will wipe away every tear. Like your family, I’m looking forward to that day.

If there was ever a person on this Earth who was the true embodiment of unconditional love, it was you. You loved every one of us for exactly who we are.
Thank you for loving me through times of heartbreak.
Thank you for loving me through times of anger.
Thank you for loving me even though I'd sneak upstairs to your cupboards and eat your peanut butter with a spoon.
Thank you for supporting me through all my interests and passions. Thank you for making the worlds best meat loaf & mashed potatoes.
Thank you for taping a literal library full of TV shows on VHS just so we could watch them together.
Thank you for reading Dr. Suess books with me.
Thank you for playing board games with me.
Thank you for our shared love of Elvis Presley.
Thank you for introducing me to some of my favorite movies like Willy Wonka & The Wizard Of Oz.
Thank you for *trying* to help me get over my fear of bees...sorry, they're just too terrifying. I swear they're personally out to get me.
Thank you for complimenting me on my cooking (I know it's shocking that a man can do it almost as good as you)
Thank you for hanging my drawings on your fridge.
Thank you for giving me all your comic books from when you were a kid.
Thank you for welcoming my friends into your home.
Thank you for showing me the importance of family.
But most of all, thank you for showing me the love of Jesus.
You did that flawlessly, simply by being yourself.
I know I wasn't one of the grandkids who gave you great-grandkids, but I sure gave you great laughs, and I'll cherish them forever.
Grandpa was the luckiest man alive to have a woman as kind, loving & caring as you.
I'll always hope to find the same.
Thank you for everything, Grandma.
P.S. I hope it's cool, I took all the peanut butter out of your pantry❤️
