Our Grandmas

This week has been even more difficult than most because both Steve & I had to say good-bye to our Grandmas. Never in a million years did we ever think we would both lose our Grandmas within weeks of each other and celebrate their lives within days. Here's a poem I came across - Grandma Bruemer and Grandma Heitman, we love you and miss you!!

Grandmothers are blessings from heaven above
Each one is handpicked, only for us
They have special gifts, that bring a smile to our face
And we know when they're gone, they cannot be replaced

This place where they go, when they leave us on Earth
Is too beautiful by far, this place of their birth
God gave us this time, to share her with us.
But it's time to go home, to his place up above

No worries or woes to ever deal with
Just flowers and sunshine, complete total bliss
She'll watch from above, to make sure that we're safe
Always sneaking a peek, while you're asleep or awake

You'll never forget them, nor will they forget you
And they'll hold you your place, you know this is true
So don't mourn me too long, for I'm now safe at home
With my God, friends and loved ones, I'm never alone
