In Loving Memory Of "The best Grandma and Great Grandma"
MRS. GERTICE COOPER BODIFORD
who departed this life April 20, 2000
In all the world we shall not find a grandma with a heart so wonderful and kind.
Her skin so soft, her love so strong, and a slight grin when you did something wrong.
Though she told me she would not leave me, in the end he called her home.
All the sweet memories will always be in our hearts.
Sadly missed by grandson, Billy, granddaughter-in-law, Lisa and great grandchildren, Brandon & Brooke.
