We are sorry to hear of your mother's passing. We pray that your memories of her, and the time you spent together in her last days will be both a blessing and a comfort to all of you. The words you wrote of her obituary is a beautiful tribute to her life. I think I only met your mom/grandma once; clearly family was an important part of her life. Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies." Peace to your mother's memory, and God's blessings to all of you.
