Love you Mamaw
Grandma Aileen
A loving, kind and sweet grandma.
Love you so very much.
Wanted to come to your funeral but couldn't get on the only 2 flights that would have gotten me there in time. So sad to have missed it.
Can't imagine what it will be like going to Louisville and not seeing you.
Families are Forever.
