Thanks.
Everything went well with the funeral. I was a pallbearer and while we were at the gravesite having the priest wrap up the final prayers; we were all behind the casket, but I happened to be positioned viewing into it and overlooking the priests' shoulder. I felt as though God made sure I could see her for those last moments. The pallbearers were also the last ones to walk by and say our final goodbyes before closing the lid. I was the last one to say goodbye, and I kissed her on her forehead. That's where I had always kissed her everytime I saw her.
I was pleased with the turn out and the polish lady that took care of my grandma at her home for around 3 years wouldn't stop hugging and kissing me. She was very heart broken. My friend and his parents came up and that was something that they didnt have to do, especially him. I also got a few calls from like 2 friends passing on their condolences. I actually figured I would have gotten more. It's not that I think my other friends are bad friends, I just know who my really good friends are I guess.
A neat thing I learned was that one of the ladies at the nursing home walked into the room sometime Tuesday and saw my grandma with a big smile on her face and a surreal stare. We all see that as her seeing Angels and being taken home. It wasn't long after that she went into a coma and then passed away on Wednesday.
Take care everyone.
