lost my grandfather, but i'm okay
 

Hi everyone, I figured I would post news that my grandfather passed away on late sunday/early monday. It was the end of a really long illness, and I am kinda sad, but more relieved that his suffering is over. I took yesterday afternoon off from work to just make sure my mind was right. But I went back today and I am fine.

Please keep my mother and grandmother in your thoughts. I only knew my grandfather for a few short years (comparatively) but my mom lost her stepfather and my grandma lost her husband.

Thanks in advance for your prayers (if you do that) or just your thoughts and good vibes.

ETA: Moderators, please move this to "Chit Chat" -- I really thought that's the section I was in. :(

Sorry to hear about your lose! Maybe He will be in a better place with less suffering! Bless Him For The life He Lived!

It's always tough to lose a loved one. I'm glad to hear that you're doing okay though.

Rest assured that I'll be thinking of your family tonight.

Aw, gee, I'm really sorry. When I say I'll pray for someone, I MEAN I'll pray for someone. You are in my prayers as is your dear Grandfather.

I'm so sorry for your family's loss. Thinking of you and your family...

Thinking of you and your family :(

Sometimes we feel a mix of emotions when we lose a loved one. You mention sadness, relief and acceptance. I have prayed for you, your mother and grandmother, that, as time goes by, you all will find a place of peace regarding your grandfathers passing.


Best wishes,

i pm'd you:)

I used this on my grandfather's program when he passed away. It does bring me some comfort and I hope that you can find some too. Keeping you in my thoughts.

When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand.

Bless you, Sensuret, bless you and your family as you go through this time of mourning. May there be easier times ahead.

:( Sorry to hear that Sensuret. Your family will be in my thoughts.

Phrat,

I'm sorry about the loss of your grandfather. I lost my grandfather just a little over 3 years ago, so I know how you feel about so many emotions at a time like this. I'll definitely be in prayer for your family.

Thanks to everyone who responded in this thread and through PM's. I really appreciate it all.

The wake and funeral was today. It was hard at first, but then I met some family and old friends and we were able to reminisce a bit and make a positive experience out of it. I did not go to the cemetary, and I am skipping the repast....I deal with grief a little better by myself, so I'll just be reflecting a bit for the rest of the day.

He was a good guy and will be missed.
