Grandma,
Its no lie and nothing to hide- Today is a difficult day for me, along with tomorrow. Im thinking of you today, as always. Your birthday was like a holiday to me, I couldn't wait to give you something and watch you open it. A gift to you no matter how big or small was so appreciated, but throughout all my birthdays and holidays there has never been a greater gift you have given back to me than the gift of thankfulness, giving & the ability to love others the way i should. You've accomplished this through your actions, words & the need to always be there for us. Today i can not personally give you something back to celebrate your day..but i have chosen to celebrate in a different way. I will be taking the chance to make sunshine out of someone else's day, and give to somebody on the 25th of EVERY November & I will do so in your honor. Theres no doubt it will still be a rough day each year but i will make it as positive as i can.

I send all my love and a THANK YOU.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA.
I LOVE YOU ALWAYS. <33xo

Mrs. Oddo, I sit here in tears knowing the I missed you the last time you where here! I think of our teenage years how we drove you and Mr. Oddo crazy (well T did I was just an innocent party!) I will always remember you sitting at the table in Sayvile having your coffee or tea or was that Kristen with the tea in her bottle:) Your were always there for your kids no matter what and I admire you for that! Your grandchildren were always the love of your life and a better Grandma could not been found! You know I will always keep my promise to you! I know now you are with them everyday all day making sure they are safe! You and Mr. Oddo will always hold a very special place in my heart!

Missed in the morning of everyday
Missed in the evening as light fades away
Missed in a thousand and one million ways
Around every corner a memory stays
Sad are the hearts that miss you
Silent the tears that fall
Living our lives without you
Is the hardest part of all
