Summer of Death

Today I lost someone very special to me. My grandmother left this earth. She is the first person I have ever lost that was close to me. Death has been dancing near me all summer. First it was only people that I knew then death got closer. My Grandmother was a good woman. She treated all people with respect. She loved her family and friends unconditionally. Her family came first what made her babies happy is what made her happy. I can still see my grandmother's smile, hear her voice and laugh. Even now since I am older I sat in my Grandmother's lap. We sat and talked about her life, our family, and things that happened before I was born or when I was little. I will always remember the stories she told me. My grandmother went through a hard time the last part of her life, yet she remained strong for her family. She was a great mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Aunt, Sister, Wife, and Friend. She lead a full life. You will always be loved. I love you, and miss you .
