Dear Kendra,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost my grandma years ago, but I will always keep her memories alive by remembering what she thought me. One of the things she thought me was how to make Torrone, I did a demo of it in Her Honor at the Italian Festival of Angels a few years back. She will live on in your heart forever.
