Yesterday, my grandmother rejoined her Father inside those pearly gates. She lived 86, nearly 87 years. The last year or so was difficult for her. I am glad she is finally at peace.These are a few things I've remembered during the past 24 hours:
- She often offered Moon Pies and Coke when we came over.
- She made splendid pudding pies.
- I remember playing with a set of Lincoln Logs for hours over at her house.
- She had a fun aluminum Christmas tree.
- The light of different colors that shone on that tree was stuck on just one color for as long I can remember.
- She was a lover of crossword puzzles.
Thes are just some things that immediately pop into my mind when I think of Grandmommy. I lover and I'll miss her.

I am thankful that God gave me 50 years with one grandmother, she was 95 when she passed. My other grandmother died when I was 21. I definitely have more memories of one than the other, but nevertheless thankful for their love. I pray that the Lord will continue to comfort you, your siblings and your dad. May your celebration of her life and the hope of reunions bring you all peace. Sorry I will miss the visitation tomorrow night, I had already bought tickets for a Christmas concert.
I am thinking of you guys. I just am just now catching up on blogs cuz I get stuck on facebook most of the time, so I didn't even know. Sorry!!
Sorry about your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
