She went from strict grandma to cussing at me for winning a game of cribbage. She turned sitting on couch with no feet into laughs of joy while kicking back.

Well grandma you have now joined your parents, your brother and your sister we are going to miss you. Like Ryan stated "heaven got another angel today, even if She has to kick the down the gate to get in." She gave my brothers and myself a pin that stated "Never drive faster than your guardian angel can drive" Your our guardian angel now, so I won't drive faster than you can fly.
