Grandma O'Neill passing

For the last month, I have from one state to another. On jan. 9, I flew into Orlando, Florida because my mom was dying. On jan. 11,  I flew into Richmond, Virginia for a family gathering. Jan. 13 , back to Orlando. A week later, drove Uhaul truck with sister Robin, back to Virginia with some Mom's things to give to family. Next week was headed home but mom passed away and so stayed for burial. But we have to fly casket from Florida to Virginia , then brother Spencer, in Middle East so have to wait for him to get back to states. So burial now set for Feb.1, 2014. With a week to wait, headed down with sister Merrie, to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for her business trip. Then back to Virginia on Wednesday.  I will finally will get to go home to Utah next Monday, Feb. 3, 2014.
Here is Mom's obituary.

Poem

Lord, take her from us. Take her to that place, Where she can finally change, Surrounded by your grace. Take away her darkness. Make her shine so bright. Soften up her heart. Surrounded by your light. Lord, help me forgive. Bad memories fade away. Though good ones may be few, Let them rule the day. Remind me of thy mercy. Faith, hope, and charity. That when, with her, I reunite. The good is what I'll see. Lord, take her from us. Take her to that place, Where she can finally change, Surrounded by your grace. By Marrie Ross - Granddaughter
