104 is long enough

Well, Grandma passed away today at 104...only 5 months away from being 105. I don't have a lot to say about it today. I will later though. Today, I just want to be happy and sad....happy that after all these many years, she is finally home with her husband, and her son, my father. I'm sad because there is one more hole in my heart. It's strange to feel the emptiness that comes with each person I love that passes on. I don't like death. I know that there is life after death, and we return to our father in heaven, and it's a happy thing, but I hate feeling like I am left behind, and the "someday" that we will be together again seems so far away at this moment. I will miss her so much. I love her very very much, she has always held a special place in my heart, and holding her hand has always comforted me.

I don't have anything else to say today, it's too close too soon. But soon I will share my story of this week.

I love you Grandma. I'm so glad you get to be at peace now!

104 years is a LONG time to be living this earth life! She must have had a HUGE welcome party to greet her on the other side. I'm sorry for your loss and your pain... I'm praying for you and your family.
