She is Gone

Funeral is on Monday. If you are a praying type, I'd appreciate your including me in your prayers. Losing a Grandmother isn't any easier just because she was old and had a rich, full, long life. Well, maybe a little easier, but not less painful, at least not right now.

    {{hugs}} I'm sorry for your loss, and thankful that she made your life so much richer. I hope you have a comforting time with family. Know that you're in our prayers.

    I'm sorry.

    God bless her and you and yours. My grandmother died at 101.5, the other at 88, both considered long lives, but, well, it's not long enough if they have to leave.

    You are in my prayers.

    Ah, you guys. Thanks for your prayers. They mean a lot. And Patty, you're so right! Anything less than the eternity we were born for is just not long enough.

    I will say, though, that my sisters and I have had some real joy thinking up all the people she is getting to reunite with. Our grandpa. Her mother and father. Her best friend, my Great-Aunt Vernie.

    For some reason, I thought of you today as you continue to grieve the loss of your grandmother. Well after everyone else moves on, the remaining family members still think of/miss/grieve that precious one that died.
    Here's what I wrote about my Mom's death ,called, Good Grief.
    I'm passing it on to you as a way of expressing sympathy for your loss.
    I hope it resonates with you and gives you comfort and encouragement.
