My grandmother passed on at around 8 PM Tuesday. I found out while standing in a Hy-Vee grocery store check-out lane. I'm sad, she was the only grandmother I've ever known. I've been trying to think of all the good times we used to have. My niece is at that really emotional state of growing up and is crying and upset. I was 9 when my grandfather died and I remember how sad I was. I just keep talking to her about how lucky she was that she got to say goodbye to her and that she will get to meet some cousins she never has before at the funeral. Still not sure about the funeral arrangements. I mainly feel bad for my mother because obviously it's her mother, but it also happened on her birthday and anniversary.

I just had to include some pictures- the first one is my sister, grandma and me (the roly poly baby) and the second is a fun memory of doing things with my grandma- good rummage sale finds huh?
