23. Dear Granny D, I'll never forget the morning I saw you on your Walkathon
as I was heading to work. I was so amazed with your convictions, and your willingness to walk the walk, as well as talk the talk.

Blessings to you, Granny D. May you still shine your light and love to those of us left behind.
