This is a post that is difficult for me to write... I just lost my great grandmother who just passed away within the hours. She was one special lady and the loss of her is felt deeply by many, even though she lived a full life. For the past few months, she bravely fought. The love of a great grandma is unique. God must have given great grandmothers to us to liven up our lives, to make our lives more complete, to make us well rounded and better human beings. She played a big part in my childhood as she helped raise me and I can remember so many times sitting in kitchen and tasting the dishes or her having me sit to eat that nasty liver and onions dish. She taught me a lot.. She has never been just my great grandmother, but my guardian, and someone I could always sit and chat with on bad days. I will miss my great Grandmother, but her spirit and strength, lives on in each of us and in the lives that she touched. She lives on in me and in all those who have been touched by the love, strength, conviction, wisdom, and beauty of her soul. You truly were a special, special woman! You may have passed on, but your memories would always live on within us. Thank you for your sacrifices, your care and concern, your love and everything that you have done for me. Wherever you are, I know you are in a much better place. I will be forever grateful and thankful that you are my great grandmother.
Rest in Peace Fay Courtney...we will never forget you and we will always love you forever... Wednesday, January 11, 2023 |
