Hi Memere, I'm writing to you here because I don't remember where your new home is. You're probably getting sick of being there. Just know that I don't go a day where I don't think about you. I miss you. We all do. Tell auntie Anita I said hi too. *hugs* - Posted by: Kendra (Granddaughter ) on: Aug 16, 2014
