It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you...


My Grandmother, Jessie Marie O'Dell, was everything a great Christian should be. The way she lived is the way many people would aspire to do so. Everyone in the city of Bristol knew who she was and that she served a great God. When she left this earth on Monday October 17th, 2011 she went to walk the streets of gold with her loving husband. My grandmother basically raised me and I still have all the great memories, from taking me wherever I wanted to go to teaching me to cook. She is everything I could ever hope to be. When things would be bad at home she was there. She would come and comfort me. My grandmother grew up ina house full of boys when her sister died, but yet she still managed to have the love and effection every grandmother should have. She tought me how to believe whole heartedly in what I believe in and stand strong no matter what anypne has to say. My grandmother was im inpiration in life. Ging through hard times or sharing laughs in the park together, she brought she much to this world that no one can replace. She will always be remembered, and no matter what I know she is with me even when her physical body is gone. She still lives in me and I know that will stay true for the rest of my life. Rest in peace Grandma, you mean the world to me...
