RIP, Gran

[wasurera]

We got to Gran home, sat her on the edge of her bed, rubbed her back, gave her the prescribed amount of morphine, and told her how happy we were that she was home with us.  30 minutes later she passed away, at peace.

Now the whole family but Denny/Kristen/Rio (illness) are here sharing wine, beer and food while  swapping stories about Gran and

I know this is a few days late, but I just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear this. I am always afraid of people not knowing how awesome the people I love are when they die, so thank you for including this picture. By all accounts, She seemed like a cool lady, and one who was much loved.

She was pretty cool. She's at peace, though - and the more I talk to people the more it seems like she was gearing up to leave. She'd checked into cemetery plots during the last year, and at Christmas (I was still in South Korea, so I didn't hear this until after she passed) she basically let everyone know how happy she's been with us and how much she wanted to let everyone know that we'd made her happy.
