It's always tough losing a grandparent. I lost one grandfather at 14 then a grandmother in my twenties. Both were very hard on me personally. I can only say that time will make things better and remember them for who they were, great, caring people. Good vibes being sent your way.

59. Oh John, we don't live anywhere near each other and --
-- I don't think I can put it any better than other DUers have here, but if you will take it, I offer my good wishes to you and your family.

Use the strength of character you show on these boards to all of us to help your younger brother and others in the family. I'm willing to bet that a lot of your good will is in them too and that Kitty Kleeb saw it in all of you also.

Celebrate that. It's good, good stuff and it lasts long after we're all gone.

PM is you feel like it.

89. I'm Sorry John...
It will get easier to deal with as time passes, but it's a bitch at first.

Lost my dad, and all four grandparents in a 5 year period, many moons ago.

Keep the the things your Nana loved about you alive, and you keep the memory of her alive as well.

And it sounds strange... but keep your sense of humor too... it can be your best friend in such a time as this.

Peace.

WillyT

93. Do Whatever Feels Natural...
And know that your Nana still loves you, and so do we.

a "remember" session

116. It's always a painful milestone for a family
My grandmother died at age 100 in 2000, and the gap she left has not been filled.

Deepest sympathies to you and your family. :hug:

123. I am so sorry, John
I have been through this, with my own Nana, as you know, and it just fails to sink in, as you said, and you will always miss her. This is just a given. But you can make it through this, if you focus on being there for your Dad and on the wonderful things that she accomplished in her life and all that she gave to her family. I think that you have so much to draw on. My thoughts are with you, as you know.;(

124. Requiescat in Pace
In paradísum dedúcant te Ángeli:
in túo advéntu suscípiant te Mártyres,
et perdúcant te in civitátem sánctam Jerúsalem.
Chórus Angelórum te suscípiat,
et cum Lázaro quóndam páupere
ætérnam hábeas réquiem.

126. Awwwh...
Sorry Kleeb...


:-( I think of my dad's mom often... there was a strong connection & even greater respect there


:-( Strangely enough all my grandparents passed a while ago now, but my Great-Grandmother outlived them all by 17 years!


Here's to long lives & Great people!
