My Grandma

My Grandma passed away this past Monday. I was able to be with her and the rest of my family the most of the time she was in the hospital. It was such a blessing to me to be able to be with her as she passed on. I can't even begin to explain the Spirit that was present in the Hospital room. We also had a wonderful nurse that helped my family in so many ways. His name is Jake and I have no doubt that God placed him in our lives to help us through this hard time. I also got to talk with my Uncles more then I ever have and I now feel much closer to them.

I am extremely sad about grandma dying, but I also and very happy because I know she is happy now because she is back with my Grandpa. I also am very greatful of my knowledge of the gosple because I know I will see them again. Here is my Grandma's obituary:
