Continued Light Blogging...

...with a chance of watery eyes.

This morning at about 11:00 AM, my wife's grandmother passed away peacefully at the age of 94. She was a wonderful lady who touched the lives of many people. She had fervently hoped to live long enough to see the second coming of Jesus Christ in her lifetime. She is survived by a son and a daughter, several grandchildren including The Queen and more than a couple of great grandchildren. She is also remembered and loved by many, many adopted "grandchildren".

She is missed.

  5. Thoughts and prayers for your family at this time.

    Is there anything we can do to help?
    It isn't that far of a drive (minutes) if you need anything.

  6. To all, thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. They are much appreciated.

    Bob S., I appreciate the offer; but, surprisingly, all the prearrangements went smoothly. Everything was taken care of and handled by about 2:00 yesterday afternoon. We do need to find an excuse to meet in meatspace one of these days though.

    Now she will get a private audience.
