What a privilege has been to have known Grandma Neola Anderson. We mostly saw her at birthday parties and other family gatherings since our son Christopher met Kartier. Neola always had a sparkle in her eyes and a warm smile on her face. She was always interested in others and so loving and caring. We always had enjoyable chats at every family gathering. May her great legacy and love continue to live on in all of her children and grandchildren and other loved ones. All our love and prayers.
