3:30 a.m.

Grandma went to be with the Lord early this morning around 3:30 a.m. She went without a lot of suffering, and for that I am thankful. The Hospice staff took really great care of her to the end. I am sad, but there is a sense of relief that she is finally home. The viewing and funeral will probably be Thursday and Friday. Alex is scheduled to take a flight to California for work from Wednesday to Friday that he cannot get out of this last minute. Orginally, he was going to fly us all there. So, I am not sure what plan B is for a quick trip. It's an 800 mile drive. Please pray that the details on how the kids and I get out there will work out. Thanks.
