We said good-bye to Grandma yesterday and it's hard to believe it has really happened. She looked so beautiful, like she was only sleeping. She lived a long life, often difficult, but she worked hard, never complaining, always full of love and pride for her children and grandchildren. She raised eight children to become wonderful adults and lived to see 23 grandchildren, over 50 great-grandchildren, and 20 great-great-grandchildren. We loved her so much and we miss her terribly, but we know where she is, and she's having the time of her life! And knowing that I don't say Goodbye, I say "See you later, Grandma. I love you!"
