Maria was my grandmother. In fact, she was the best grandmother I could ever ask for. She visited me with my mother on multiple occasions when I was younger at a Dairy Queen, that’s probably why I throughouly enjoy that place. Every birthday and holiday I received a call and a card from her and grandpa. I hope she knows how much that meant to me. It always felt like she was there even when she wasn’t nearby. She used to send me traditional candles and talked to me about the Greek Orthodox Church when I was growing up. She always kept her traditions and her culture alive. When I visited her house she showed me how many pictures she had of me everywhere, including some I wasn’t in, but she cropped me into. She always had a way to make me feel so loved and special. Her getting an iPhone was incredible. We would text often and she would send me the cutest messages. I have several voice messages left from her and texts as well. As I read and listen back through them you can see her positive energy shine through. Her laugh was honestly my favorite. I can hear it replaying in my head. She was very special to me. I will forever think of her and live everyday to make her proud.
