Three days before another anniversary of her son’s death crept back around, my Granny was called to go on and meet him at those Golden Gates.
“Breathe that beautiful fall/summer air and know she is at peace. We all love that sweet, funny, irreverent classy lady who would buy a dress for a wedding and take it back to the store……So many stories to tell…..” -Mom

Oh, the bittersweetness of the end of a long life well lived. The sadness of the loss of those left behind alongside the comforting thoughts of her reunited with ones who have gone on before. Sigh.
I wish you peace and many happy memories.
