As I have no intention on needing any sort of memorial any time soon I thought it appropriate to share some thoughts on those who are gone from the living plane.
Grandma Sara Fae: OH I don't need a single day to think of her, she is always on my mind. She was so pivotal to my life. Her passing was bitter sweet. I knew she would be in a new and painless place, but I miss her. She was overwhelmingly positive. She always had a cup that was full. I hope I can be her positive legacy & continue to face complicated and simple challenges with grace and hope.
Grandma Rosa Carolyn: I thank her. I believe I found Bertha because of her. Think what you want but my reason for going to have tests done was because of a painful lump that showed up not long after she died. I think she saw something that she couldn't see when she was corporeal. She saw Bertha and she used her spirit to inexplicably poke me over and over and over to say 'go to the doctor'. My painful lump turned out to be nothing and has since gone away. I will always believe that she saved my life. She and I were far too alike to get along very well. We would butt heads over everything but I loved her. I loved her for the lessons of independence she taught my family. I miss her, but I am sure she is with me.
So on this memorial day - I hope we can remember to say and do what needs to be said and done long before a memorial is needed.
Life is fragile - Say your I Love You's
