Funeral/Family times

On Monday June 11th my Grammy was called to become an angel.  She had a great life which only started to slide in February when her health declined drastically.  The love and life story she lived in the 88 years she was alive and 65 years married is one that many of us can only dream of having.

We packed up and headed up to the services.  Learning Marli gets car sick but otherwise easy travels.  Once up there we were on the go with family, funeral and services.  This time we decided to take Emmi to the funeral where we were part of the services, Jacob pall bearer, E & I brought the gifts to the alter which she did amazing at.  Overall E did amazingly well with all that she experienced.

In typical Cormier fashion the humor prevailed with fun, laughs, and of course tears had by all.  The girls with cousin Will.

Emmi hanging out with Cousin Chloe.

Then Emmi and Uncle Alan had to try to redo the picture they had done just 3 years prior.  Think they did a good job?

It was great to be able to see all my family since we dont get to see everyone on our trips up.  I truly believe that people who have died will give you signs to let you know they are still around.  There have been two incidents in the days since my Gram's death that I feel she has let me know she is still around. One being after dropping off some clothes to get altered we saw the brightest most vibrant rainbow above us going down the highway.  Then the other was on our way back to Charlotte another rainbow appeared just after I was checking out FB and looking at my Gram's photo.  She will definitely be missed but I know she will be keeping an eye on us.
