Today is a bittersweet day. My grandma Winifred went home to be with Jesus today (Saturday) and while there is sadness because she is no longer here to see and talk to, she is also no longer in pain......and is in the presence of her Heavenly Father. Winifred was such a unique and special woman. When my grandmother died, granddad had no desire to be alone. He set out to find just the right person, and Winifred fit the bill! She was 66 years old and had never been married. All I know is that for the next twenty some odd years.....she made my granddad quite happy and she took very good care of him! She always made me feel important, and I know that for us, she was truly family! I have a sadness in my heart and I wish that over the last year I would have gone to visit more than I did......but life and distance got in the way. My heart has regret and I hope that if you are reading this.....you will take my advice and spend as much time as you can with the ones you love! Winifred was very special......and she will be greatly missed! I love you Winifred!
