Cathy remembers - I’ve thought a lot about all the memories I can write about when it comes to my grandma and there are way too many of them to write down. When it comes to her last moments on earth with us I can say that the greatest memory I have and will always carry with me in my heart is when she blessed me along with the rest of my loved ones that were present that night. She was suffering so much that I prayed and prayed that God would allow her to stop suffering already. I didn’t want to see her struggling to stay alive anymore, I remember 2 ladies being there and singing worship songs and praying over her and for her and seeing the peace she felt before she woke up was great. I admired my grandma so much for her strength that I can only hope I had that much strength to accept her death the following morning, but I didn’t… although I knew she was no longer suffering or hurting and that she was already in a much better place.
I remember her big smile and again her strength. She would give us the Best Hugs and Kisses any one of us could have asked for. I know when it comes to me I could honestly say that her hugs and kisses would always make me feel loved! I remember her getting mad at my kids once she got sick and first came to California. My kids would run around her and trip on her feet and she would yell but would get over it in a short while and before we knew it she was already hugging and kissing them like if nothing happened. She loved my Jazmine so much, and I can imagine it was because they were so much alike when it came to being sincere and honest about how they felt.
My Vila will be missed so very much!
