I love you Grandma <3 I miss you so much. That song you would sing, "Mansion Over the Hilltop" came into my mind so hard today. I listened to it a lot and it helped me a little today. I remember you singing it a lot, that was one of your favorites. I'm so happy and I thank God for the time we had with you…all of these years and all of these memories, I will cherish them for as long as I live. I thank God that we got to talk to you before your surgery, you told us to be careful and I'll see you later sweet potatah, you always said that. I thank God that I have videos so I can still hear you tell me you love me. I thank God that you are not in pain anymore, and you are walking on streets that are purest gold….you can walk again grandma! I love you grandma <3 I'll see you later sweet tater!

I wish you were here grandma. So much has changed. I met someone…we’ve been together almost two years. We’re getting married on May 17 of this year. I remember you always use to tell me that you would dance at my wedding. I wish you could. I know you’re with me, always…I just wish you could be here. I miss you so much. I love you grandma.
Mary Beth says
Hey grandma!
I got married! You would LOVE Becky…she’s smart, she’s strong, she’s beautiful, she’s a hard worker and she’s always making sure I’m happy. I know one thing you would mention, if you had known her, would be her eyes. She has the most beautiful eyes ever!
Once again, things have changed…a LOT. We did something crazy…we quit our jobs and started working for ourselves! It was scary, and there are times that it still is scary but it was worth it. We started our own little business at home and it’s been doing really good. We’ve got everything in order and we’re keeping track of everything on paper and electronically. Becky does so good with the sales, she does great with keeping up with all of that. It’s AMAZING!
We still live in the mountains…I still love it there, grandma. I know you would love it too! We have a garden every year and last year I started canning haha but that didn’t turn out too well. It’s ok though because there was a lot that I could freeze so I did!
We’re at the Outer Banks right now, we will be leaving pretty soon. We come out here pretty often. Soon, we are going to be getting a house out here, we’ve been looking into that lately.
Mary Ann passed away not too long ago…I know y’all are talking up storms right now. Tell her I miss her too. I miss us all sitting in her kitchen and just talking.
I better get off here grandma, I love you! I miss you! I’ll see you later sweet tater!

Hey grandma!
I love you and I miss you ♥️ We’re still working for ourselves. It’s nice being able to take off whenever we want to. We can start the day whenever we want and stop whenever we want. I know you’d be proud ♥️ And by the way….I can’t believe I forgot to tell you this before but Martha went back to school and got her GED! She sure did! I’m so proud of her! That was a couple years ago. And she also has her license now 🤣 can you believe little ol martha is driving around!? Bless her heart, she really did it! Her, mama and Marley lived in Tennessee for a while. It was a cute place about 20 minutes from me in the mountains. But they moved back to Albemarle a couple years ago. They have a beautiful brick house. Oh my goodness, you should see it! They have a huge basement too. Martha has a fiancé now too…his name is Jason. They’ve been together for a while now. He has two children and they’re awesome. The younger daughter is 15 now I think…but her and Marley are best friends. He has an older daughter but she’s going through transition now and will soon be a man. I’m proud of him for becoming who he truly is. I’m gonna try to go hunting today…hopefully I will start getting deer soon and maybe even some squirrel and rabbits 😃 that would be great! I love you grandma ♥️ I’ll see you later sweet tater!

Christmas is Monday grandma ♥️ we h da be gotten a little bit of snow but, it wasn’t much. Do you remember that snow we had that one year? I was in highschool and I was dating that boy named Zeb 🤣 good lord! Remember all that snow we got? Me and Martha went outside and made as many snow balls as we could make and threw em as far as we could 🤣 it was fun! Then we got worn out. I think that was the same time our power went out. Mama cooked on that kerosene heater and made sure we all had something to eat. We were truly snowed in 🤣 that was fun! I wish we would get a snow like that again. You would really love where I live now grandma. We use a wood stove for heat. So if our power ever goes out, we still have heat and a way to cook. You would love it ♥️ I wish you were here grandma ♥️♥️♥️♥️ Christmas is Monday 😊♥️ I love you and miss you ♥️♥️♥️ see you later sweet tater
