RIP: Grand-Maman
My grandmother passed away last night at the age of 97. Words cannot express how our family is feeling right now. And yet, oddly enough, every time I think about her, the images that my mind conjures up make me smile.
And for some reason, all through my day at work I was humming "Always With Me," the main theme from Hayao Miyazaki's Oscar-winning Spirited Away. We can only hope that she was finally spirited away to a much better place.
May she rest in peace. . .

Condolences to you and your family Patrick. 97 sounds like a great, long life. May she be in a wonderful place :)
Awww. Mes condoléances. J'aimerais avoir un mot inspirant mais je n'ai rien de plus intelligent à dire. :( Ma grand-mère est décédée quand j'avais 5 ans mais je me souviens d'elle encore très bien. Les gentilles grands-mamans ont cet effet sur nous hein? :)
Very sorry to hear this. May we all have 97 years on this planet. My heart goes out to you and your family.
Best,
Michael
