This past weekend was one of heartache and joy. Heartache for the fact that we will all miss “Grandma Great” and her contagious giggle, smile and warm hugs. But also of pure joy being surrounded by family, who all came together to celebrate her life and the life we shared together. The whole family spent many hours at Uncle Dan’s sitting in the living room reminiscing about Grandma, flipping through scrapbooks, eating yummy food, telling funny stories, passing babies, sharing tears and giving plenty of hugs and words of comfort. I am so grateful for the Smith family, I truly have been blessed to be a part of such a fun loving group!

When someone you know passes away, it brings the harsh reality that life truly is precious. If anything it has reminded me to try and be a better person, you never know when your time or someone you love will pass on, so you better show them your love while you can.
