A death in the family is always hard to deal with and while I'm not sure whether words from a stranger on the internet would help but nonetheless - my condolences for your loss.

Nice grandparents are a luck and a benediction, and your grandmum looked really an amazing grandmum !
Sorry for your loss i hope time will help you recover. Hug ! (also beautiful grandmum / grandpa relationship)
(my grandaunt left a text saying "if you do good deeds then i'll live forever", similarly following your grandmum way you honor her)

My condolences, sounds like she was a great person.
I'm glad her mind lasted until the end.
Having witnessed several people suffer from dementia, this is something to be really grateful for! Please make sure your Grandpa gets enough attention and interaction now that she is gone. I wish you and your family all the best in this time of grief!

Your grandmother sounds like a remarkable woman.
She reminds me so much of my very dear grandma. She passed 9 years ago this month and I miss her every day but I am so grateful I got to know her and be raised by her. On the day my grandpa had died, a few years earlier, she told me "your grandmother has lost her soulmate". After 60 years of marriage and just about 65 years together, her heart was broken but it kept on and she found her happiness again in memories of their life together and in their children and grandchildren.
Your grandfather will find his balance again. Once the grief has settled and he makes peace with his loss, he will remember the good times and get by. And you will too.

Condolences & sympathies for your loss, I never really had the grandparent experience in my life but her loss must feel all the deeper to you because of so many happy memories, I hope you can use those as a buoy during these difficult times and not allow guilt to take a hold of you, it can be a difficult rabbit hole to dig yourself out of (take it from my experience, you always think you've got more time than you've got, even when things take a turn, it's just human nature). Hope your grandfather will be able to navigate this period in his own way, love and support can make all the difference.

Hi y'all.
My grandmother passed within the last month or so. So there I found myself, standing in the anneX of the baptist church, looking around at all the people I didn't know, and thought of this. (It's taken me a while to get around to it, however.) I loved her dearly, but rarely had taken the time and spent the money to visit. Two or three visits a year wasn't enough, but was how things tended to work out. I wish we had gone to see her this summer, as it was her last, but I'm also glad 4 the good memories from Christmas. Ultimately, she had peace with God through Jesus, so that was good, and I'll see her again at some future point. She adored reading and seeing the wonders of naturE. She was a marvelous cook and had a great sense of humor. Her cookies were far better than anything you could buy in a store. Hearing her reminisce was always interesting--not always the particular story itself, but the way she related it. I'm glad her mind lasted until the end. Even if she didn't understand--or was utterly bored by--our interests, she was always supportive and interested for us. I'll miss her. I'm grateful for her life and all the good memories. She was always gracious, a lady, and I don't know if I ever heard her say anything purposely unkind. She's in heaven, so she's not falling anymore, and not tired all the time. She was eager to help where she could, and so caring. She considered her in-laws as family. She was skilled at needlepoint. (I've found peace, but I worry somewhat for Grandpa. He told us that she was his best friend for well over 60 years. Their marriage was in many ways a fantastic example to us who observed it. It was said at the funeral that their marriage and bond was so close that the kids, looking back at childhood, couldn't easily tell what was Grandma's influence and what was Grandpa's. He never complained about helping her in her failing years but, when he had had a medical crisis of his own, his primary thought was of her, and who would care for her.)

I made this short train and puzzle in her honour. She didn't care about computer games, but always took the time to watch if one of us grandchildren wanted to show her something in one of our various games.
It consists of seven carts, spread across levels one through seven. Also included: a few questions, and at least one comment on a game.
PS: Thank you all for your kind comments; I don't promise to respond to them, but I will read them all.
