Ben's Grandmother Grace Trotter passed away on Friday, June 15, 2007. She was a wonderful grandmother and great-grandmother. She loved her family more than anything in this world. She treated me as family from the first moment I met her, and even though I only had the privaledge of knowing her for eight short years she had also become my grandmother. I remember the first time Ben took me to meet her she was very excited (as she always was to see her favorite grandson) she told Ben to hold on to me because I was a good one. He told me that on the way home and I just remember how special that made me feel. She had a way of making you feel special and loved. She loved Emma Grace and loved to tell anyone who would listen about her wonderful great-grandaughter who just happened to be named after her. She loved to tell stories...sometimes you had heard them before but you didn't care because you just enjoyed listening to her and her adventures. Grandmother had some vision problems that caused light to bother her so she always had on a sun visor wether it be day or night inside or out. Emma Grace and I made a sunvisor the other day and when I took this picture of her all I could think about was grandmother and how much she loved her little Emma Grace.

Such a sweet tribute. My grandmother also died this year and it is often hard for me to think that Caroline will not even remember her...but then I have to remind myself that my memories of her are so sweet that I will share them often w/ her. I know you will do the same with Emma Grace. Our condolences to you all.
Good for people to know.
