When I found out the time was near

I needed to go the her as a shed a tear.

As I walked through the door

I froze for a moment feeling heartsore.

I never thought I would be the one at her bedside

To watch as she crossed over the other side.

When I was a little girl we spent most of our time

taking walks downtown to the five and dime.

She shared many good memories of my grandfather

that I hardly knew

The love they shared together was precious and true.

Through the years she never let you down

Her laugher and smile always wiped off the frown.

She devoted her life to cooking and cleaning

Secretly she also loved singing.

I always looked forward to her Sunday dinners

The Basile Family what a bunch of well fed eaters.

It is hard to say goodbye

All it does is make you cry.

My Grandmother, my best friend

She is at peace, this is the end.

Her giggling and laughter

She would all wants us to live happily ever after.
