Gram passed away last night. After a night of laughter, stories, and family billowing through her home, we all went to bed. Katy slept in Gram's room. About an hour and a half later, Katy noticed Gram's breathing seemed a little slower so she woke Shelley up. Katy and Shelley agreed that Gram seemed to be on her way, so Shelley went to get Pam.
Katy thought, "Ouch! Now, why would Mom pinch my butt on the way to get Pam?" She turned around and Shelley was not in the room... Was it Gram? :-)
Pam and Shelley quickly and calmly entered the room and Gram took a few more shallow, soft breaths. Then, she just slipped away in total peace.
MJ, Mark II, and Amy came up to Gram's room and we all sat around laughing, telling stories, sharing a few tears, and knowing that Gram was off onto her next journey and having quite the party with Pop!
From last night before she passed, I forgot to post:
These beautiful flowers arrived this morning from Tom and Heidi, Chad and Cody's friends. So Gram, right? Thank you!
