Grandma Elsie

You lived a life of love and calmness- reflecting God’s love to everyone around you. Did I ever tell you how beautiful I thought you were? Did I tell you how I loved your hugs? I loved your smile and your laughter! Did I tell you how much I looked up to you?

Grandma your life is such an example to me- faithful and full of love. You weren’t captive to regret and malice. You lived a life of blessings; your life wasn’t in vain Grandma. So many people search and question if there living a life of meaning, but you really lived a life full of meaning. A simple life of loving and taking care of your family, a simple life but one that is radical in the society we are caught up in today.

So here I am driving further away from where you’re resting. But Grandma I’m caring you with me- you will live on in my heart and the memories I have of you. I will try to carry the legacy of your life in my actions and love. I love you so very much- death can’t take that away from me…
