Dear Safta Rabba Ruchammah,
I have never really met you,
but some how I feel really close to you
I love you,
even though you're not there
I know you passed away when I was only 3 months old
but I heard some really great things about you
you were nice, smart, giving, and beautiful inside and out
I was your first and only great grand-child
and I was and am proud to have this job
and the thing that I most care about,
is that I caused you this happiness.

Dear Ofir,
This is such a beautiful tribute to your great-grandmother. The final stanza in which you express the honour that you feel in being her first and only great-grandchild was very powerful and showed the wonderful connection that you share. You obviously share many traits with her!
While reading this, I couldn't help but think about my own great-grandmother who passed away when I was a teenager.
Thanks so much for sharing this.
