To one of the most remarkable ladies I know,

To the person who taught me how to play just about every card game I know;  

The lady who never forgets a birthday or anniversary and attends every sporting event, piano recital and every other special occasion possible; 

The one who recorded a talk on tape to be played at my baptism, and bought me my temple clothes the first time I attended the temple; 

The lady who loves to watch football and comes shopping with us the day after Thanksgiving; 

The one who gathers her family once a month to make humanitarian kits; 

The lady who  taught me the value of being thrifty, the joy of simplicity, and the importance of gratitude. 

To the woman who's faith is unceasing and who's strength, courage and perseverance is inspirational. 

May you have the happiest of birthdays. Your shining and unceasing example of charity, love, service, dedication, strength and faith will be a be looked upon and spoken of by your posterity for generations to come. Thank you for all that you are and all that you've done. You truly are remarkable.

Happy 85th Birthday Grandma!
