Grandma C.'s Funeral

Derek's Grandmother passed away unexpectedly on March 24. It still doesn't seem real. She was a wonderful Grandmother, Great-Grandmother and was even a Great, Great Grandmother. She loved her family and left a wonderful legacy. We will miss you Grandma C.!

This was the last picture taken with her and all the great grandkids from Derek's family.

It was so cold the day of the funeral. It snowed the next day as we were leaving.

Her remaining siblings, Lorana and Ardith.

This was a birthday calendar she used to keep track of everyone's birthday. She would send everyone $2 bills with a letter.

I love this photo. I didn't know how the kids would react to seeing her at the viewing but they did great. They weren't afraid to see her or touch her. She looked beautiful. This is Uncle Steve talking to Ava and Emma. All the kids drew special pictures for her that were put in her casket before it was closed.
