On February 19, 2006, family and friends of an amazing woman whose life spanned two centuries gathered to celebrate her legacy of love, creativity, and wisdom. Her name was Barbara Orndorff, or simply, lovingly, 'Grandma' to many. This digital tribute is for those who were there to remember, who were unable to attend ... and for all whose hearts she touched.

Grandma's Voice
A recorded poem, recited by Grandma herself, was played during the "Poetic Remembrance" section of the service. The poem is from Grandma's book of children's poems called "Smarty Pants," published in 1950.
