Grandma’s Funeral

Posted on January 17, 2015 by thepersistentplatypus

Today was my grandma’s funeral and since I live so far away, I was unable to go. It is hard being away from family, especially during times like this. My family told me that 100 people came to pay their respects, and I was very happy to hear that.

Thank you for all your prayers and condolences. She is at peace now and smiling down on all of us!

I am terribly sorry to hear this. My Grandmother died this past June and I did not attend her service or see her before she died.

I do hope that you are coping well and will be able to begin to heal in time, keeping her memories close to you.

Peace, light and love
CC
