My dear sweet Grandma Burgoyne passed away early this morning. I don't even have words to express how much I love and adore my little grandma. I had the wonderful opporunity of caring for her for the past week along side of my mom and Mindi. It was an amazing week full of laughter and tears and one that I will remember and treasure always. Grandma always took such good care of us and it was our turn to give back to her. To be able to sit by her side and hold her hand and she spoke so softly about being ready to pass from this life and into the next was just amazing. Grandma passed away peacefully as Mindi and I tucked her into bed. She was happy. She had a smile on her face and there was such a peace in the room. She knew it was her time to go and I know that without a doubt. She lived a wonderful and fulfilling life. She touched so many people. I am going to miss her sense of humor the most. As hard as it is here for all of us that love her so much, I know that she is so happy because she can finally be with her sweetheart who she has longed for for many years. I know grandma is in a better place and I know she was ready. I will forever be thankful for the wonderful example was was to me.
I love you Granny B.
I love you Granny B.

I am sad for your loss, Steph, but happy for your Grandmother. I was with my dad when he passed away, and it is a sacred experience. We love you.
What a precious experience. The veil becomes so thin. I'm glad you were able to experience it with her. You are an amazing granddaughter. She will bless your name forever. I'm glad it was quick!
The tears started again! That was so sweet. I feel so helpless right now. I'm looking forward to being together in a couple of days!
That is so tender. Let me know if I can help, if I can take carson or anything else!
Granny B was the best! I'm sorry that she's gone and that you are missing her, but I'm happy that it was a tender, peaceful, sweet experience!
