Grandma Joan's Funeral ... October

October saw the end of a very strange saga ... the passing of my Grandma Joan Garchow in Detroit. We went to the funeral, along with mom and dad. But it was very strange. I said goodbye to a woman I didn't feel I ever really got to know in life. But I also got some peace, for my mom's sake. It's nice to know she won't have to deal with the pain and frustration that her own mother so often brought to any situation. We all experienced the peace of forgiving and doing what was right and moving on. All I can say, is that I will remember the good times, from long ago, and I hope she is in heaven. (The white roses were from my three kiddos).
