Peace in the Sadness

Yesterday, someone very dear to me passed away. I don't have much time to write the tribute she deserves, but she was a remarkable woman. I will miss my grandma, Dana Lou Jensen.

After raising her 5 wonderful children, she helped raise me (and my siblings). But, after 18 and a half years of separation from her dear husband, I am certainly glad she didn't have to wait another day. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by family.

We are all still hurting, but we are strengthened by each other and feel closer to heaven today, and there is peace in our sadness. Here is a link to her obituary.
