I got news last night that Elaine passed away. It certainly wasn't expected this soon, but the way it happened was more merciful than it might have been...
I'm satisfied that she is happier than she's been in at least 4 years. She's had a long-awaited reunion with her three sons. And she's never been okay with Mom's passing. She's missed her so much, and couldn't understand how any of us could be at peace with it. I suspect that things have even gotten sorted out with Dad. :)
Graveside services will be held on Friday in Burley, as per her wishes. The family is giving her son, Denny, time to get home from Iraq to attend...
Summertime!!

I am glad to hear that her suffering is over. I'm also glad that you were able to go and see her one last time before she passed away. It is always hard to lose a loved one.
What a blessing that she is reunited with her children and parents. You were such a good a loving sister to her and I'm so glad that the siblings were able to have a little reunion recently.
I'm sorry to hear of your sister's passing. Hope you are okay.
I was randomly checking the blogs I follow (though obviously I don't do this in a timely manner) and read of your sister's passing. Losing a loved one is always difficult, no matter when it occurs. It sounds like you are handling it well. Our thoughts are with you.
