My grandmother passed away Wednesday afternoon. She had been sick for a while and had taken a turn for the worse in the last couple of weeks.
We got to see her Tuesday- I'm really glad we went over.
I'm sad she wont be able to attend my wedding - it would have been her first grandchild to get married.
I am thinking about doing a memorial table for all of our grandparents. I was going to do a seat or something just for her as a memorial because the others passed years ago, but i think it is important to honor them all.
She lived a great life, and 88 years isn't too shabby!
Thanks for listening- I just had to type it somewhere because i didnt want to post on facebook in any detail.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I think a memorial table is a great way to honor your grandmother and other loved ones.
My grandmother passed away in July, and we're doing a memorial table with flowers and photos for all of our loved ones who passed, but I also wanted to honor my grandmother in a special way. I'm having a pair of rose-shaped earrings (her name was Rose) sewn into my sash. Maybe your grandmother had jewelery you could wear or a rosary to put around your bouquet so she can be close to you.

I'm so sorry. I lost 2 grandparents this summer - taking their names off of my guest list was really heartbreaking for me. I think it's lovely that you are honoring her at your wedding. I'll pray for strength and comfort for you and your family.

I'm so sorry. I lost my uncle last week at the young age of 62. I still can believe he is gone. Sending prayers your way!

So sorry for your loss. I think even lighting candles in a small ceremony before yours in her honor is nice too.

this is a great idea we found a lot of rosaries at my grandmothers house!

I told FW that she needs to do this, as well as adjusting with the florist, etc
