Florabel Jo Zimmerman Tribute

Thank you Belle.
As a little boy I felt heard and important; I knew first hand what unconditional love felt like.
As a young man I saw a woman living her life in a way that made me deeply proud not to mention humble; I marveled at your freedom and generosity of spirit.
Now, as a father, when I hug my children I try to hug them the same way you hugged me. I hope, that by doing this I can pass along to them just a little bit of what I was so lucky to get from you. That they feel the same kind of love I did, the kind that comes from someone's very core.

I miss you terribly Grandma. But I know as long as I can find someone I love to hug, you will always be present.

Marcus.
