Granny's door was always open. It was her genuine sweet spirit that made everyone feel welcome. Even on the worst days she could lift you up by surrounding you with a love like no other. So many happy memories were made at her kitchen table. She will never know the countless lives that were impacted by her patience, kindness, love and genuine compassion. She taught us that it wasn’t the expensive or fancy things, but rather the simple things that bring the most happiness in life. More importantly, she taught us about her eternal destiny. She knew that it is only by the blood of Jesus that we are saved. Romans 10:13 FOR WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.
