She was a sweetie pie and a loving person. I loved her and still love her always: God is taking care another awesome person.

My Little Grandma was a wonderful, caring, and hard working person. She loved her family....we all were the center of her life. She loved to take the time to visit and talk with just about anyone which was why she loved her last job as a Wal-mart greeter. If you were visiting at her house she would invite you to stay a little longer, and then try to feed you. She had a great sense of humor and knew how to tease a laugh out of people. She was a great hugger, too. I will miss my little Grandma very much.

I loved my Grandmother very much. She always had a smile on her face to greet you with, or a hug. She loved visiting with her family, and she loved us going to see her. I miss her dearly, but I know God has her now. She is no longer in any pain, and I'm thankful for that. God bless Grandma Cootabug.

I remember visiting Grandma and her doggy Sugar. Grandma always gave me the biggest hugs and patted me on the head! I loved seeing her happy, because it always brought a smile to my face. I miss you very much Grandma

I remember every time Grandma saw me, she would give me a big hug and lots of kisses, and if I were lucky, she would give me some cookies she bought from Kroger. I will miss you lots Grandma! Love, Nicky.

Every time I saw Grandma, she would squeeze me really tight! Those were the best hugs ever! And sometimes, my mom would send me next door to borrow an egg. I'm going to miss walking over to say hello to her. She always had a smile to share with the world.

Grandma will be missed dearly. I remember her being very brave and loving. She seemed to always have a smile to give, or kiss to share, or a tight embrace to make you feel like someone out there still cares. I will miss his greatly. God bless.

Grandma was an amazing strong and independent woman. Always had a smile and a hug to offer everyone she came in contact with. I am thanking God that she no longer suffers with pain and agony of this world. Thank you God for the time we had together to make our happy memories. Grandma also made the BEST homemade biscuits ever..she will be missed dearly. Love you Grandma!
