I was typing some stuff in my computer last Sunday at around 12:30 P.M. when my sister called. She was asking me if I was busy and I said YES! I was a bit cranky that time for some reason. She asked me if I could go with her to mom's and I asked her why she needed me to go with her. When she told me lola passed away already and we have to tell mom about it, my jaw dropped. Tears welled up in my eyes. Oh God, this isn't happening. I didn't waste time anymore, I hurried up and went straight to my sister's to go to mom and dad's.
Hours later at my lola's house, I saw her lifeless body on her bed. I held her hand and realized it's true, my lola's gone.
"Lola, we will all miss you. We love you very much and we'll see you again in heaven."

Dearest Pia and family, I want to extend my deep sympathy and love to you at your bereavement.I know how it fwels when a loved one passes away. But your Lola is with Jesus and is so happy there. That itself is a great comfort. May the Lord wrap your heart with His presence.
I am so sorry you lost your Grandma. That is so heartbreaking. Praise God she is with Jesus and you will see her again when you are old and a grandma yourself.
God Bless you and Keep you!
