I am sadden by the news my Grandmother lost her battle with Lung Cancer yesterday. She had had a roller coaster of events with her health over the last couple of years since my Papa and Dad passed away. She had seemed to be fairing fairly well of late.
This is the woman that raised me as her own when my own parents were to young to do so. She was very opinionated, headstrong and hardworking. She gave all she had to ensure that her family was well taken care of and loved. She was not perfect or a fairytale kinda Grandmother but she was mine and I loved her very much. I am who I am because of the values she helped instill in me.
I regret not being able to spend more time with her in her latter years. My heart is filled with grief. I know my siblings and cousins fill the same for we all loved our Granny.
Rest in Peace Granny. Enjoy your homecoming with our loved ones that have went on ahead of us. I will see you again soon and we will rejoice in that day.
