The special bond you have with your grandma is the kind that won't ever be broken; at the end of the book of Proverbs it reads, "and her children will rise up and call her 'blessed.'" Your grandma must have been a very, very special lady; what wonderful memories you have to reflect back on.
Like many others here, I too will be praying for you and your family.
Here's a long hug from one person who's also lost her best grandma,

Very sorry for your loss. I too was blessed with an awesome grandmother, there is nothing like them. She passed away two years ago.

Sorry to hear about your loss. You and yours are in my prayers. She sounds like the Grandma that I lost, I used to play for her also. Keep on playing for her and hold on to the memories and love that you had for each other. |

Location: Jet City | Thanks for the support, prayers, and kind words everyone. They've helped considerably.
I sent that note to Bobbo just after I arrived here and was pretty distraught. Your notes are very comforting, thanks. I was very lucky to have her in my life. I've been busy arranging some pictures and digitizing others. Not sure the best way to integrate them into the service, but I think a song's length with a few of the best shots. I don't think we want to comment between pictures. Too much of a slide show I think. Just 3-4 minutes of music and pictures. We're not sure yet.
I will play something. Don't know what yet. I have a couple ideas, but nothing that's stuck out more than anything else. Suggestions are welcome.
I just did this picture, one of my personal favorites.
In loving memory.

Location: Boise, Idaho | I wish I could think of a good Grandma song for you, but if you want an easy, touching one for a mother of boys, do Momma by B.J. Thomas. I think it's just 4 chords. Let me know and I'll go look them up and send you the lyrics if you can't find them. |
