We received news from the Philippines that my lola (grandmother) fell asleep in the Lord yesterday. My mother was able to fly there and arrived just a day before Lola’s passing.
My Lola Juana lived with us for several years when I was young and I have wonderful memories of her. Although only 95 lbs., she was able to lift giant bundles of laundry tied up in bed sheets over her head, strong from a lifetime of hard work. Lola had a sweet, wonderful laugh and a kind spirit. I wish I’d had a chance to know her better once I became an adult, but those questions and conversations will have to wait until the hereafter now.
I love you, Lola, and will miss you.
I’m sorry to hear of your Lola’s passing. I’m glad you have treasured memories of her to keep with you. I pray God’s comfort for you and your family.
May Her Memory Be Eternal!
I am sorry to hear that April. Know that we are praying for her, and your family at this time.
