My grandma Carol had a huge impact in my life and faith journey. She always had an open door and knew how to make everyone feel special and loved in her presence. She showed us true Christ-like hospitality.

She made it possible for her grandkids to go to Bible Camp each summer, intentionally planting the seeds of faith. She always showed up to every sporting activity, every “Grandparents Day” at school, and weekend breakfasts with our family. She truly took an interest others and was the most generous and selfless person I’ve ever met, still to this day.

She passed away in 1997 and she’s always on my heart. I am who I am today because of her love, support and prayers.
