To my wonderful grandma I wish I had came to see you but all was to late here is a poem I wrote for you. She hugs and kisses her loved ones at Heaven’s gate,Then shares with them the joy of her new found fate.She goes on and on about the ones she left behind,It’s going to take a while, because she was Grams to all mankind.Now God bestows the heavenly rewards upon her head,As always, she shares them with others instead.She now receives the deed to her new heavenly mansion,To make room for all of us, she’s already planning the expansion.Heaven’s newest garden is now in bloom, She started working on it, as soon as she left that room.Not being able to work in the soil now for some time, I am sure her smile is brighter than summer’s sunshine.So Grams wished for all to understand,That God is the key to the eternal land.If you choose Him before it’s too late, Grams will meet you at Heaven’s gate. I will always love you. Love your grandson(23 years old), your great-grandson Zayden Alexander Lee Wilson (1 years old), and My wife your grand-daughter in law Misty Dawn Wilson(21 years old).R.I.P Grandma Vicky you will be truely missed.♥♡♥

She’ll be missed and remembered.
So sorry to hear about the loss of your mom, grandma, and bestfriend. I was Vicky’s cousin. Hope she is at peace now, with no pain, and no worries. She has plenty of family members in Heaven to keep her company. My mom and dad and two brothers are there to greet her. Along with all her family. May you all find love in remembering all the great memories of her.
