Saying goodbye!








It's been a crazy week but I am finally taking the time to update! We had my Grandma's funeral a few days ago and it was absolutely beautiful! All of the grandkids got the opportunity to tell memories we had of her for the funeral service and it was so nice and fun to remember all the good times we had with her! We laughed and we cried. We all feel so blessed to have her as our Grandma and to know that she is happy! We will miss her very much and will always cherish our memories together! We love you Grandma!

GRACE

Grace Page Turpin
Sept. 21, 1922 - Oct. 16, 2008
My Grandma Grace hasn't been doing very well these past few years. The doctors and nurses had told us quite a few times that she probably wouldn't make it very much longer. But every time she pulled through. It just never was the right time for her to go. Well yesterday my mom called me and told me she wasn't doing well again and that she probably wouldn't make it through the next couple of days. So last night me and my sisters went to visit her. My mom and her sisters were there also and as we all stood around her bed she passed away. I feel so blessed that we were there with her when it happened. She passed away so quickly and so peacefully. It was quite an amazing experience. We all could feel the spirit there with us so strongly. We will miss her soooo much but we are so happy for her. What a peaceful feeling it is to know that she is in Heaven with her husband and the rest of her family and that she is happy now. She was such an amazing person to everyone that knew her. We were all so close to her and we feel so blessed to have her as our Grandma. She truly is a woman of grace!  We sure will miss you Grandma and we love you so so sooo much!
