Location: White Mountains of AZ | My 95 yr old grandma was called on up Friday morning around 10:30. She had most of her kids and all her grandkids. We kept telling her it was ok to let go and move on, but she held on. It was no more than 15 minutes after we got ahold of her daughter than wasn't able to come and let grams hear her voice, that she passed. Her final request was to be cremated with a chicken wing in each hand, a Coors Light beer, and her "Revlon, Love That Pink" lipstick. She was a character. She also raised me until I was about 4, and somehow I can remember so much of that. This one was a tough one, but she's no longer suffering and for that, I'm grateful. |

Location: In The Snow, AZ | She sounds a lot like my hubbys grandma, whom passed a few years ago... Luckily we got to keep her around until she was in her early 90's.
I am so sorry for your loss. I'm sure she was an awesome, inspirational woman. |

| I went through this last year when my grandmother passed away from leukemia. My prayers are with you! It's never easy, she was a constant in my life from the moment I was born. Many many great memories full of love, wise words and stories. Mine also held on until everyone was there and we gave her permission to let go. Miss her every day.
Hugs and prayers! |
