So a lot has happened that I need to catch up on. In this picture is my dad and Grandma just a two weeks before he passed away. My grandma was in a nursing home living in Ogden, she had Alzheimer's. My dad wasn't in the best shape to go see her but for some reason he just needed to get out there. My grandma had no idea about my dad passing because our family didn't know how she would cope with it. Just two weeks after my dad passed, my grandma passed away.
I had talked to her a couple nights before and she was so excited that I had called. She started asking about my dad which then I had to cut the conversation short, but I think she knew. I will miss her stories about my dad growing up. She comes from a different background then I was raised which she is Jehovah witness and I was raised as a Mormon. Pretty weird...I know. She taught me how to play the accordion and read music even. She also made the best home made cinnamon rolls. I miss her just as much as my dad. Even though I talked very lightly of her, we were very close and now I am trying to cope with my dad and grandma being gone.
