My Family

My grandmother passed away last week. October 29, 2007. She was 91 years old and had been suffering with physical pain for as long as I could remember, so her passing was a blessing.

I know this may sound morbid, but I was really excited for her funeral. I was excited because this meant that my entire family was going to be able to get together, after years of time and distance.

I had the BEST time. My grandma was the oldest of 4 children and while her brother had passed away 3 or 4 years ago, her 2 sisters were able to make it out for the service. It was an amazing thing.

I also got to see my cousins. Not all 19 of them, but pretty close.



My Uncle Kirk and his family.



My Aunt Syl and her family.

I was unable to get a picture of my Aunt Fran and the 2 of her 7 kids that made it out.



My family, excluding my brother Dennis.

My grandma was the hub of our family and we were able to celebrate her life together.
