If anyone could spare some thoughts and prayers ...

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry to hear she isn't doing well. You know though, she will be watching over you and she will see the story. It's always hard to lose loved ones but she will always be in your heart and thoughts. Best wishes for you and your family.

She's gone. She passed away about 10 minutes before I posted last. My dad didn't get to the hospital in time. His sister was there though and said it was very peaceful. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. If you have any left, my Papa could use them. My dad said this last week is the first time he's ever seen his father cry. They were married for 57 years, and he's just not sure what he's going to do without her.

Sending you hugs, and one to pass along to your grandpa, too.

Here are a few pictures of the sweetest lady I've ever known. I've held back on tears but looking through these pictures has me crying so hard I can barely see the screen. I love her with every ounce of my being. This is a lady that never hurt a fly and thought of everyone else before herself. I just hope that she passed a little bit of that onto me.

This is me, my two cousins Ashton and Morgan, and Nana at Christmas last year

Here she is with Ashton

Nana and Papa at their 51st wedding anniversary party

Here's the whole family at the same party, before Ashton and Morgan were born.

And my favorite - with my Papa on a cruise about 5 years ago. Their bond was so strong.

Sarah I am so sorry for your loss. Your Nana seemed like an absolutly wonderful person. May she Rest In Peace.

You and your family will be in my thoughts.

Sarah, you have me in tears now too.

Your grandmother is a beautiful woman. You can tell from her photos that she was a very loving woman, just as you described. She looks as to have been a very cheerful person.

Your grandfather will learn to cope but he will certainly need help from you and the rest of the family. I'm sure he will recieve the love and support he needs.

**Kfamr** · 03-22-2007, 06:04 PM

I am so sorry, Sarah. Please let your family know I am thinking of them and give your grandfather a big hug for me.

{{{HUGS}}} to you, too.

Sarah I can't possibly imagine what you're family is going through. I send support and hugs to you all, especially your grandpa. Your grandmother is a beautiful woman, and I know she is deeply missed. ((((HUGS))))

**luvofallhorses** · 03-24-2007, 01:27 PM

I am so very sorry, Sarah.

You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. ((((HUGS)))) to you and your family.

Oh gawd, can't believe I have only seen this just now.

Sarah, please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of one of life's angels, your grandmother. My thoughts are with you and your family, please feel free to PM me anytime you feel like talking. It was just over a year ago that I lost my grandfather so I'm feeling some emotional pain too.

((hugs))

Thank you all so much. I've cried my fair share of tears but I've also tried to be happy. I've been talking on the phone to my friends a lot since then and they've kept me laughing. I know my Nana would not want to see her family in tears. It'll be different come Monday and Tuesday at the visitation and the funeral, and I know I'll be crying again, but for now I'm trying to stay positive and just keep living life. I think for the most part it hasn't really set in, because I just saw her two weeks ago, and it doesn't seem possible that she's really gone so soon after that. But thank you again, I really appreciate all of the comments.
