My grandmother has taught me what it is to be a lady.  I believe that she has handed down several of her natural abilities and talents to me.  She and I were kindred spirits.  I can only hope to one day be the beautiful, smart, graceful, phenominal, tactfull, kind, loving, and inwardly feminine woman that she was and remains to be in the spirit world.

I love you and miss you, Grandma Maderiah.
