I have written on here before, but I had to write tonight because I was thinking of her. Della, I miss you so much today. It still breaks my heart that I will never see you again. It has been a rough day today and I think of all the times you would come into the store to shop and would stop to talk with me. I so wish I could see and talk to you again. I never imagined that I would come to cherish a stranger so much. I guess that what life is a lot of times. Chance encounters with people that will change your life forever. I have another customer that comes in now and she reminds me so much of you. It still doesn't take away the pain though and how sometimes I will see someone with the similar hairstyle as you and I think of there's Della and then it hits me that it can't be you. Anyhow I love you my "wisconsin grandma".

Words cannot express my grief. I have no one favorite memory of Della. I met her at Walmart where I work and every minute I spent talking to her was a blessing for me. I considered her my "wisconsin" grandma. We always talked about the latest cases on Nancy Grace. If she didn't see me at work for a few weeks she would always say "you been alright". I loved her and will always think of her until I go. Hope to see you in heaven!!
