Grandma Richardson I will always remember our adventurous shopping trips together, I couldn't speak Spanish and you didn't speak much English so I always had to call Barry or find some poor person to translate for me so I could figure out what you were looking for, how much money you would spend on cosmetics and not sure if you really knew how much money you were really spending, and how you always had to stop at the See's candy shop before heading home. I will never forget when Craig and I took you to play Bingo, I've never seen you move so fast, I was very impressed. But my fondest memory is when you made Craig and I your favorite cantaloupe smoothies and you caught Craig dumping his down the sink and how mad you were at him. Thanks for such wonderful memories. More importantly I want to thank you for the impact you had on Craig's life, I have enjoyed hearing about the memories he shares with you. We will miss you Grandma Richardson.
