Grandmother.



This is Grandma Hofheins. She is the greatest woman I know, aside from my mother. I have had the opportunity to work for my grandma and therefore see her often. I admire so many things about this woman but there are two things that really stand out. She has an unwavering testimony and loves to share it often, which strengthens me; and she has built her life around service. My grandfather, who has now passed on was very ill the last years of my life; my grandma took care of him with unconditional love and support. Even though she is the ripe age of 87, and she is usually in a lot of pain, she teaches piano to many of the kids in her ward and the best part is that she teaches for no cost but their improvement. She always has a big smile on her face and she genuinely loves life. She is a magnificent example to me, and all those who come in contact with her. She is definitely one of my favorites, and I love her lots.
