I guess there comes a time where we must face up to the fact that our loved ones around us will one day leave this earthly realm; my grandma passed away peacefully on the 22nd of March just a couple of days ago.
It's a blessing to be surrounded and mourned by your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren; i hope when my time comes though, it'll be simple and quick. I will always have fond memories of ma-ma, especially when i was a kid.
My mum used to bring me and my sis to stay with her on weekends when they were staying at spottiswoode park, ah, fun and carefree times those were. :) Ma-ma always doted on me and i guess, kinda spoiled me and she did all her grandchildren. All these memories will stay on with me till the end of my days.
We are all sad of course, she has been a part of our lives all these years, so it'll take time to overcome it. But she has been a great person during her life, and will surely be blessed by God.
I think the eulogy my aunty read sums it up best; a part of her will always remain in all of us. Farewell Ma-ma, till we meet again on the other side! :)
Well said buddy, Amen.
