"One of the hardest things I've done in my life, but also one of the most fulfilling things I've done in my life, was being able to send my grandmother off looking beautiful.
"I offered to do my grandmother's hair because I didn't know how the funeral home was going to do it, and I was the one always making sure the hair was together in her last days here with us on earth.
"She didn't like her hair long at all. Every chance she got, she would have it cut really short, like Halle Berry short. All that beautiful curly hair was able to be shown at her service, and I'm so sad she wasn't able to see it for herself, but I know she was as with me during the time I was with her and even after
