My grandma's body gave up on Wednesday. Her heart was really strong and held on several weeks longer than any of us expected. As timing would have it, we were all supposed to gather in Pennsylvania this weekend for a wedding. The first great-grandchild is getting married and we are celebrating with her. Grandma would want us to celebrate and enjoy being together. So this weekend we will celebrate with Cassie and go home next week and have a celebratory service for my grandma. The weekend can't help but regale stories and sayings from years past.
A new chapter will begin as we all begin to navigate life with our memories but learning how to live without her daily presence in our lives.
Your prayers are coveted this week.

We're praying for a weekend of joy ~ especially for Cassie and her new husband.
I am now praying for a week of peace. May God grant you and Mike both a week of precious memories, sweet time with family and safe journeys. I love you both and look forward to your being HOME.
