In Memory

My grandmother passed away this morning. She was 87 years old. She'd been having a difficult time over the last few years, suffering with dementia (Alzheimer's). I hadn't seen her in about 8 years. Fortunately, I was able to visit with her one last time before she passed. It's hard to believe that I was just with her less than two weeks ago. I know she's in Heaven with my grandfather, her memory is back and she is happy again walking around with her loved ones who have gone before her.

It has been an emotionally difficult day for me. I have cried ever since I hung up the phone with my mom and uncle early this morning. I've done a lot of praying and I'm confident that all is well in Heaven. She's there. Granda's there. And they are at peace, together once again. I couldn't ask God for anything more than that.

"May your unfailing love rest upon us O Lord, even as we put our faith in you."

I want to dedicate this song to Gramsie. I love and miss you. Give Granda a big hug for us. :)
