After suffering through her many injuries caused by a car accident, my Grandma, Pearl Powell, passed away this afternoon. She was 78 years old.
My mom was lucky enough to be with her when she passed. Right before, my Grandma had opened her eyes and looked at my mom. My mom asked her if she could see my Aunt Dawna and Uncle Martin (two of her children who had passed before her) and my Grandma was able to nod yes. She then slipped away.
I was fortunate to have this woman in my life, even if we weren't very close.
The family is doing alright, we are happy my Grandma has finally found peace.
We will be having a small service just for the family. No public viewing or funeral. It is what my Grandma wanted.
I love you, Grandma!
