My maternal grandmother (the last of my grandparents) passed away yesterday evening. She wasn't doing well since last week. We were praying for her ardently.
My heart tells me that she is with Jesus. She received the Anointing of the Sick and passed away peacefully and all her 7 children were there with her.
She is named after St. Ann. And I don't think it is a coincidence that she passed away on the Eve of the Feast of Sts. Ann and Joachim. St. Ann, patron of grandparents, pray for my dear grandma.
We are miles away from our home country and will not be able to attend the funeral. We love you and will miss you grandma.

I'm so sorry for your loss, I'll be praying. I had to miss my grandmother's funeral too, it is so hard when you can't be there.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss. Grandparents leave such lasting memories on our hearts!
ReplyDeleteI am sorry for your loss. That is beautiful that she passed on the eve of Sts. Ann and Joachim's feast day. I'm sure she is celebrating with them today.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. It is so hard to lose our grandparents. God bless you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteOh, so sorry for your loss, sweet friend! My grandmother is also an Ann, and one of my fears is that she will pass before I make it home to see her. Praying for you and your family...both those far and near.
ReplyDeleteYou have my deepest sympathy. Rest in peace Grandma Ann.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry. Grandparents are so wonderful, but like you said, I'm sure she is celebrating the Feast day with the Saints themselves! Praying for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry:( but that is a beautiful happenstance and I agree with you that it wasnt a coincidence. I know that it must be hard not being able to be there. Hugs
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss. It definitely isn't a coincidence that she passed on St Anne's feast day!
ReplyDeleteBlessed Be- I am so sorry for your loss. It is very beautiful that she passed away after receiving anointing of the sick in the presence of all of her children on the feast day of Sts. Ann & Joachim. I am also sorry that you will not be able to attend her services. I pray for her and your family and for you, too. Maybe you be filled with the peace of the Holy Spirit. Take care. -J
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for you loss. Praying for the intercession of Sts. Joachim and Anne as you mourn her and say good bye from far away.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry you have to mourn from far away but am glad she was surrounded by her children. My grandparents live in Poland and I will most likely miss their funerals as well. I understand how hard that must be. Prayers for you.
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry. Praying for your grandma and the repose of her soul.
ReplyDeleteSt. Anne, pray for AAIWBG's grandma.
