Like steve, I also thank you for this slice of life.

    I never tried to get too cutesy-gooey-close to my grandmother because I knew this day would come.
or for other reasons that might not be clear yet.

This line jumped out at me because, close or not close, there will be grieving. And I want hubski, all of you, to not be afraid. The harder you grieve, the deeper you loved, and it's those love relationships that can provide stable ground for us to build a life on -- a life that will continue after the loved ones are no longer with us.
