Condolence: I'm not the master of staying in touch but you always made sure to call when it was time for me to hear from you. It was a conversation if few words with a lot of meaning. Every sense May 22, 2007 you pinned my badge on me and I have worked and held myself high because I know that you had more pride than even I for that moment. It meant the world to me to have you pin me that day as you were the one who gave me my base training on those Saturday night sleepovers in Wilton when we watched cops. I miss you greatly and love you very much. It's good to know that you're riding with me even more so every night at work.

Condolence: We miss you so much already Grammie. I miss your voice and your laugh and your smile! I miss the way you listened and loved me. I cherish all of the times we had together- in person and on the phone! It felt like you were supposed to be with us for many more years, watching the kids grow up, but I am so thankful that you have total peace. You will always be with me, in my mind and in my heart. Thank you for being a wonderful grandmother and true best friend. I love you.
