In Memory Of Frances Rodeheaver March 7,1919 to Feburary 24, 2003 I remember all the good times with grandmother Going to visit her In New Wilmington, Pennsylvania During the summer and sometimes fall I would play in the grass Roll in it Play with my toys in it Build little fake nests in it At night we would try To catch some fireflies Put them in a jar And watch them light up Until they died The next morning I remember The rabbits in her back yard And always around Was the smell of dead skunk Phew!!!!!!!! I loved looking at All of her hundreds of dolls She loved to collect Of the years I remember one time Sleeping on a cot Out on her enclosed porch And listening To all the night noises Until I fell asleep *************************** I inherited her Strawberry Shortcake Dolls In her will I guess she knew I loved those The best She passed away tonight But I just want to remember The good times Before she got sick And died So I sit here At my computer weeping As I write All the good times I had with her But at least I know one thing She is suffering no more And is forever at peace Cold hands means a warm heart [This message has been edited by the_loner_23 (02-24-2003 09:49 PM).] |

"...She is suffering no more And is forever at peace" Hold on to those thoughts and of all the fun visits you had with her. Keeping her memory alive is the best way to honor your beautiful Grandma. *s Hugssssss, Dorene When you think you have heard it all, |

She'll feel no pain in Heaven, and from there she lives on in your heart. What is life without poetry and adventure? |
