Put Grandma's name here

You were so much to so many
Grandmother, mother, sister and friend
Inspiration to all generations
The love you gave us will never end

Your legacy is not one of worldly things
No object, no riches could ever outshine
The joy you brought to so many hearts
And the love in your eyes that so brightly did shine

Grandmother, mother, sister, friend
There were no boundaries to your spirit
Generous with yourself, your actions, your affection
Even your hug, to this day, my body still can feel it

Grandmother, mother, sister, friend
Your beauty did not dim with time
Deeper than skin, joyful as laughter
Beauty of heart, body soul and mind

We cannot say good-bye,
Though the world tells us we must
Because you gave yourself so freely
We all carry you forward within us

In the midst of our grieving you,
Grandmother, mother, sister and friend
We are also rejoicing, celebrating your life
The love, the joy you gave us surely never will end

Sue, sent you this in a PM, too.

Im so sorry that your grandmother has passed away.

At least she was in peace when she did and she has gone to a beautiful place.

((({{{{{HUGS!}}}))) Hope you feel better but she'll always be in your heart.

Thank you everyone for your loving thoughts, prayers & actions. They mean a lot to me. She was my last grandparent I had, there are no more for me. I was exceptionally close to her, and her husband, my grandfather, who has passed away close to 15 years ago now. To say that they will be missed is an understatement.

It wasn't really sinking in yesterday, even though I saw her, she was no longer with us. It is sinking in more & more as time passes. My emotions will get worse before they get better.

Thank you so much Karen, for taking the time to write such a beautiful poem. I will honor it at the service, where it will be displayed on beautiful yellow rose paper, with pretty print. Do you want me to list your name as credit? (I'll pm you and ask there as well).


I am pleased to say that I am taking care of myself as best as I can, in fact I am treating myself to a trip to the dog park tonight. That ALWAYS helps lift my spirits. Don't tell Kaige & Indy that this trip is for me though, they might think I am a little nuts.
