Memories grow and memories fade,
But memories of Grandma never go away.
Her smile rests in mine,
her hands help me sew,
Grandma in Heaven
– Author Unknown
If flowers grow in heaven Lord, then pick a bunch for me
then place them in my grandma’s arms and tell her they’re from me.
Tell her that I love and miss her and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while.
Grandma

Grandma, your life was full of loving deeds,
forever thoughtful of our special needs.
Today and tomorrow, my whole life through,
I will always love and cherish you.
Grandma's Gone to Heaven
– J. morse
One quiet day the angels came and took Grandma far away
But in the stillness of the night I could almost hear her say.
"Dear grandchild" – I will miss you, you mean so much to me
But Jesus called mem to his side, in Heaven I will be.
A place of God’s great beauty, no tears of earthly cares
Only peace and joy forever and love beyond compare.
So remember all the good times, don’t think about the sad
Treasure all the special moments through the years we’ve always had.
And if you trust in Jesus, I can promise this and more
You will get a hug from Grandma someday past Heavens golden gates.
I Love You Grandma
– Author Unknown
There is never a time when I never needed you by my side,
Your wise advice has shaped my life, the right way every time.
For no reason, I just wanted to tell you how much I love you,
I promise to always be there for you and never leave you blue.
And whenever you find yourself sad, don’t you shed a tear,
Just always remember that your little one is always here!
I love you, Grandma.
For Grandma With Love
– Genie Graveline
Grandma, just in case you don’t know,
I want you to hear it from me,
You’re more precious than words can describe,
You’re the heart of our family!
We are blessed when you are beside us…
And warmed by the glow of your smile,
And lucky to share in your wisdom,
When we sit and chat for a while.
And Grandma, if I grow to one-hundred,
I want you to know that it’s true,
I will love you forever and ever,
There’s no one more special than you.
A Wonderful Grandmother
– Author Unknown
We had a wonderful grandmother
One who never really grew old
Her smile was made of sunshine
And her heart was solid gold
Her eyes were bright as shining stars
And in her cheeks fair roses you see.
We had a wonderful grandmother,
And that’s the way it will always be.
But take heed, because
She’s still keeping an eye on all of us,
So let’s make sure
She will like what she sees.
She is Gone
– David Harkins
This poem has become a funeral favorite because the uplifting words remind us how important it is to celebrate our nan’s life instead of focusing on her death.
You can shed tears that she is gone
Or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left.
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her
Or you can be full of the love you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow, because of yesterday
You can remember her and only that she’s gone
Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
Or you can do what she’d want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on
