Funeral

Yesterday was sad for me. I usually go visit my grandma with my mom on Wednesdays during my lunch breaks, but instead of going to visit her, I went to her funeral. That was hard to swallow. It was a beautiful funeral though. My mom spoke and she spoke of all of the wonderful things grandma has done for her and others all her life. She really was such an amazing woman. She was a tough woman too! 103! That's a long life! There was a wonderful duet sung in Norwegian also. I know Bestagrandma loved it. Then we went to the cemetery where she joined her beloved husband Ingo (who I know she is holding on to tight right now---just like she said she would), her daughter Lorraine, and granddaughter Shannon. We are all going to miss her. And I must admit, I'm still not used to the fact that she isn't here anymore. So it will take a while to get used to that, but I know she is overjoyed to be with her loved ones that she has been without for 20+ years.
It was so sweet. Her "second daughter" spoke and said that at the hospital a few days before she passed away, she was saying, "I love all of my family so much. Please tell them all how much I love them. I love all my grand children and great children all the same. But I love Ingo the most." It made us all laugh. Her and Ingo had the sweetest love story. I know she is so happy to be with him again, so I'm trying to be happy with her. :)
Till we meet again Bestagrandma.
Jeg elsker deg
