From the moment she met you...
Grandma loved you.
You made her laugh...
and made her smile.
And she was there for your first birthday...
and your second birthday... 
and you were there for her birthday too.
She taught you how to play cards and "poker"...
and how to draw and write.
And she loved your Pookie too. 
She was there for your third birthday...
and we visited her as often as we could.
Your grandparents love you very much. 
You were thrilled when she sent you a scarf or a bear...or two!

Hi Vivian, this is very emotional to me as i think of your Mom and tia Olga my favorite Tias, is the best gift you gave your Daughter these pictures with Grandma, I'm sure she will treassure them forever.Love you guys. Be strong.
I am so sorry Viv. What a blessing that Kerri has some good memories with her Bobe.
Hugs to you Girl and one for Kerri as well!
As I sit here with tears running down my face and a runny nose, you have given Kerri such wonderful memories of her Grandma.
Kerri will be so touched by you ensuring that she never forgets such a wonderful person.
Big HUGS!
Viviann & Family,
I am so-o-o sorry to learn the news about your sweet Mama. How blessed Kerri is to have known her. Both of my parents passed away years ago (I can't believe it has been that long) and never knew my children except for my oldest. However, your Mama lives on in youy and Kerri through those precious memories in your hearts, so she is always there. My heart and prayers go out to you and your family.
What a lovely tribute. My thoughts are with your family.
Teri (and all):
First of all, thank you. We all appreciate your kind words and prayers.
My Mom is still with us. She is in Hospice, and in the end/final stage of her illness. My understanding is that they keep her as comfortable and pain free as possible, and her life is now in G-d's hands. I pray she goes peacefully and does not suffer.
The reason I did this post now was because I probably would not be able to do it later, and I wanted Kerri to have this for the future.
My apologies for the confusion,
~Vivian
Beautiful Viv..
Hugs going out to you..
That was a beautiful post and as I started reading I felt the goosebumps. I'm so very sorry.
Hugs go out to you my dear friend.

Viv, what a beautiful tribute to your mom for Kerri to hold close to her heart at she grows. She and you will both have something beautiful to remember visually the wonderful times that you all had together. I pray these final days, however many there may be, are peaceful and pain free for your mom. And that you are able to heal yourself enough to do what is necessary for travel. This was a wonderful part of your coping with what is in front of you, and dealing with the pain and sorrow. You know I will suggest that you take all the prints and make a Bobe scrapbook that both of you can sit and turn the pages to as you re-tell these wonderful stories to Kerri over and over again. She will treasure it forever. {{{{{HUGS!!}}}}}}
What a lovely tribute to special lady. Beautiful memories.
Oh Viv. What a beautiful tribute. Sending hugs and love to you and Kerri.
What a lovely gift you have given - to both Kerri & her Bobe. I know that this was hard to do but it is perfect.
Hugs & love,
Me
It's all been said before me..this was such a beautiful act of love that Kerri will treasure always. Your mom must be a very special woman indeed as she raised wonderful you!
We love you and are keeping your mom and all of you in our prayers.
