My heart swells today with love for our boys. They were wonderful participants in their great granny's life and today she would be proud of them for their participation of her funeral mass. My husband was heavy hearted as he stood at the pulpit today to deliver a speech about his granny. I love him, and today my heart broke for him as I sat and listened to the many stories he had about this wonderful lady, and how blessed we were to have had her in our lives for so long.
Unfortunately, Jason wasn't able to attend the funeral, but he was here in spirit and sent along a note for Andy to read.
The funeral service was beautiful, the soloist had the most beautiful voice.
We are home now briefly to change clothes and then will join everyone for dinner at Andy's parents.
God Bless you Granny Margaret.
A poem about Granny:
Her smile can light up a room, her presence is of grace Her opinions are heard without one word but by the look upon her face Her touch is so gentle, her heart as big as the moon Her spirit is kindhearted and warm as a summer’s afternoon Her hair a river of gray, her eyes radiant as the sun Her time she’ll take no matter how long until the work is done Her kisses are so soft, her hugs preferred from the rest My granny is mine forever and ever and she’ll always be the best.
