Farewell Ada

Jerry’s recent passing made it very apparent that just because you know something painful is coming, that doesn’t make it any less painful when it hits. Just because people may tell you somebody’s passing could be seen as merciful, you’ve still lost someone, regardless. Such is the case also with Grandma Marcia’s mom Ada who passed away last night. When I talked to Marcia this morning she mentioned how the world keeps right on spinning, and I agree, but quietly we often wonder if it should.

I’ve always felt a little distanced from Marcia’s parents, and I’m not sure why it turned out that way, it just did; but I can say with certainty that Marcia loved them both very much, and that she has reason to grieve (and feel 1,000 other emotions) even if the world does keep right on spinning.

We’re here for you Grandma Marcia, let us know how we can help!

Here’s an image of Ada holding Ian at his baptism, with the widest smile I’d ever seen on her face.
