Anyone else?


Anyone else watch this movie when they lose a grandparent?

My grandmother died 4 days ago (aged 92, we've known it was coming for a while and she had 5 out or her 6 kids sitting with her singing "somewhere over the rainbow" as she passed - seriously, it was that perfect) and I was asked to write a little something to say at the burial. I agreed and after that they started using the word Eulogy. Well. I wasn't quite prepared for that responsibility being the youngest member of this generation of my family and probably not particularly close to my grandmother anyway.

But this week I've been attending all the family meetings, trying to ask questions of the siblings and all the while trying to write something wonderful in memory of my grandmother. I think I've acheived but now I'm watching Eulogy because it just feels right to watch it, even though it's probably really inappropriate lol.
