How does someone put into words how much we will miss you Gwen. ? I heard this quote a while ago and it fits perfectly here:
“THE BUSINESS OF LIFE, IS THE ACQUISITION OF MEMORIES”
My memories of you are of a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother, you were a mentor to me in that, your kindness, your caring, your love, made me a better person.and i will always cherish those memories, and like Howie always says , “BYE FOR NOW”.
You live on in our hearts………………………………..Love , Deb
