My grandma died last night

February 3rd, 2012 at 04:09 pm

Feeling pretty blue this morning Frown

My 93 1/2 year old grandma passed away last night. We knew it was coming and the end was near.

I was fortunate to have been able to spend the entire day with her yesterday, along with my sister, brother, 1 cousin, my mom, and my aunt and various vistitors who came to say their final good-bye's.

DH brought the girls up last evening and all 3 of them were able to say their good-bye's too. About 30 min after we left, she passed. I had a feeling it would happen then. My sister called me right before I got home.

I was going to blog about how she was able to spend her time in her home, even though she had some health issues, but that will have to wait for another post.

I am just too sad.

    My condolences. But it is good that she passed on her own terms, tied things up her way, and that she could do so in her own house.

    So very sorry for your loss. :-(

    I'm sure your grandmother found peace in having her family with her at the end. That is my hope as well when it's my time.

    Hugs to you and your family.
