A cameraphone summary of my trip to St. Thomas to bury my Grandmother. I was able to see her 10 days before she passed. She was in Georgia to get a second opinion. At the time my faith was heavily tested. But God spoke to me in a way that I could understand and showed me that things were for the best and she didn’t suffer anymore. It was hard but after I played the recording I made of her in 2006 during the eulogy, I got some closure. She basically eulogized herself.
I didn’t take a whole lot of photos with my camera while there, just cameraphone pictures. I apologize if this post is morbid, but I wanted to say Goodbye via this blog and I guess this is how.
