‘Grandmother Wilson’ was an adopted grandmother to me but she was even more than that. She was a friend, an encourager, and a constant believer in anything I pursued in life. She and ‘Big Papa’ (Mr. Wilson, as my brother and I called him) loved to take us to J&S Cafeteria. We would go to the mall together to walk and were amazed that they always saw someone they knew there. We loved playing Skip-Bo together and watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune in the evening. You will always be missed grandmother Wilson. You were a treasure that can never be replaced.
