My sweet Grandma Lindsay passed away peacefully in her sleep on Sat April 16, 2011. She was the most Christ like person I have ever known. She suffered for 20 years with Muscular Dystrophy and I never once heard her complain even when they finally put a feeding tube in and she was no longer to eat food. She still made sure she made my Grandpa 3 meals a day and cooked all the food for our family dinners!! We got the great chance to actually see her the Tuesday before she passed for Makaelynn's birthday, she never forgot the birthdays. We almost missed them that day because they came while I was at the store but luckily they decided to stop by my moms and they stayed longer than they usually do, they never like to impose. They gave Makaelynn a cute little Piggy bank that talks and it is one of her favorite things!! She looked really good that day and we were all encourage that she was getting back on track. That very next day I recieved an email from her saying how proud she was of me and what a great mother I had become and even praised me for not gaining much weight with this baby. When she ended the email she said that she hopes things continue to go well for us all. I think she knew what was coming and was preparing. Thurs she got the stomache flu and went down from there. My Grandpa put her to bed that night and she told him she would feel better in the morning, and she was right!! I hope she is having the happiest reunion with her parents, brother and her Daughter!! But oh how I miss her and her weekly phone call checking on John, the kids and I!! Grandma, You are AMAZING!! Thank you for your amazing example of how a Daughter of God should live her life!!
Today I got the amazing experience to go wtih my Mom, my Aunts, my cousin and my sister to prepare her for the funeral. It was like nothing I have ever experienced!! She looked so peaceful and it was the first time she was able to close her eyes in years!! I am so thankful for the knowledge of Eternal families that I have and I know I will see her again and it will be the greatest reunion!! I love you Grandma!!
