yesterday, my family laid to rest its oldest member, my great grandmother, Olive Dumas. She was 94 with a lifetime of knowledge. Up to the time of her death she was still singing praises and reading her bible, something that i myself dont do enough of.
so she was laid to rest by her four children out of seven (3 already dead), her thirty four grandchildren, 67 greatgrand and many others.
so there lies most of our family history, family tales, stories, most of which we didnt capture during her life but last night we found ourselves chatting about past events, family history and it felt strange to see the many generations all gathered with smiles, laughter, reminiscing about a life that touched us all in some way or the other. thanx Ma Miss Bee, as she was affectionately called. thanx for everything.
If you're listening, know that we love you and you will be missed, even if at times we didnt show it to you in the best possible way.
