Grandma

It is with a sad heart that I write Grandma passed away late Saturday night.  We were all able to spend her last two days with her, and she was able to see everyone, including Emma, before she fell into a deep sleep.
Grandma didn't want to have a funeral, or have a big fuss made over her, so we are doing our best to honor her wishes, but also honor what a great and loving person she was.  We will have a simple grave side service on Friday, followed by one of  her favorite activities of eating at a restaurant.
Thanks to everyone that has sent text messages, phone calls, and emails.  We all appreciate it.




Grandma only kept two pictures in her wallet, one of Grandpa and one of Emma.  It took awhile, but she finally got her brown eyed baby, and boy did she love her.  Emma still asks for her when I say we are going to see Grandma.  And as hard as it is when Emma asks,  it makes me more sad to know that Emma will eventually stop.
