In Memory of My Gram
This page is lovingly dedicated to the most wonderful lady in my life- my Gram. This
morning, December4,1997, I received the dreaded phone call to "come quickly". I couldn't
believe it, as just yesterday, I was celebrating my 38th birthday. I prayed the whole
way there that God wouldn't let her go "alone." As I walked into her room, I realized
her time was here. I gathered her up into my arms, and told her how much I loved her
and asked her to be my "Guardian Angel" up in Heaven as she had been for me here on
Earth. A tear rolled down her cheek as she drew her final breath. For then, I knew
she went "home".
My Gram has finally found "Peace" after 4 long years of battling Alzheimer's Disease
and strokes. God will rejoice today as his best "Angel" is finally home. For those
family and friends who are battling this wicked disease.....there is hope. That one
day your loved ones will go on and leave you with wonderful memories like my
Gram left myself and children. There is the hope that one day they will find a cure
for this disease so no one ever has to suffer this way in their lifetime.
Thank you Gram for giving me Love, Kindness, and a "Guardian Angel" here on earth.
You will forever be in my heart and I know you now have "peace". You left during
your favorite holiday season, and as I release your white balloons today, I celebrate
your victory over Alzheimer's battle. There will be no more pain, just the fondest
of memories to linger on. I love you now and forever- Michele
Words to the Theme Song of the Movie Titanic
The Old Woman in the Movie looks like my Gram before she passed away
Every night in my dreams. I see you. I feel you.
That is how I know you go on.
Far across the distance and spaces between us.
You have come to show you go on
Near,far, wherever you are...
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more, you open the door.
And you're here in my heart.
And my heart will go on and on.
Love can touch us one time.
And last for a lifetime.
And never let go till we're gone.
Love was when I loved you
One true time, I hold too.
In my life we'll always go on.
Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more, you open the door
And you're here in my heart.
And my heart will go on and on.
You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way.
You are safe in my heart.
And my heart will go on...
And On
