Notebook part 2

So for those of you who read my story this past week I wanted to update. For those of you who haven't here is the story
"The past week has been crazy for my Family and Me. My heart is torn in pieces and I am just so lost as to where to begin. So I will make it easy. Last Wednesday my Uncle had a heart attack. They told our family it didnt look good and should probably start making arrangements for a funeral/memorial service. On Thursday they told us he seemed to be doing better but to not get our hopes up. My aunt said her last goodbyes around 5pm Thursday night and held his hand as he passed on. The following day as my Aunt and Grandmother were at the funeral home talking with the coroner and funeral director, my aunt had a heart attack. She was doing well all up until Monday evening. She asked for my Uncle (she hadnt remembered he had passed) and the Nurse told her she was sorry but her husband had passed on the week before. That night my aunt passed quietly in her sleep. They were together over 60 years, Married for 57 of them. They shared 4 children, 9 grandchildren, and 3 great-grandchildren in the years they spent together.They promised to have and to hold til death do they part and they kept their promise to one another and will be passing through Heavens Gates together hand in hand."

On Friday evening was the Wake. As I walked into the funeral my heart dropped. There at the end of the aisle was 2 caskets. My Uncle George and Aunt Jean laid there head to head in a peaceful slumber. It always saddens me that the make up artists make it appear as though your lost loved one will wake at any moment and greet you with a smile. I walked down, kneeled on the platform and said 2 prayers, one for each person. I looed up and saw how peaceful they looked and realized they have already passed through the gates of Heaven together. I thought to myself how wonderful it must be that neither of them has to walk alone for any length of time and that neither had to live here on earth waiting impatiently to meet their life partner once again. Though it truly saddens us all at the momnet they are happy and together once more. Saturday morning we had the funeral. As we walked through the cemetery to the grave site, we heard the low tune of a trumpet being played nearby. They had 5 soldiers standing along side one another at attention waiting for their turn to remember their brother. My Uncle had served our country for 30 years of his life. As the guns were shot off in his memory tears flowed from my eyes. As I watched them fold the flag and hand it along with the shot gun shells to my cousin I completely lost it. I had to excuse myself. It was a very sad moment but such a beautiful thing to think about the way they honored him. Though we have sadness in our hearts now, as the pain fades we will always have the memories to live on with.

RIP George and Jean Feeny

You're right though, it is very comforting to know that they went together and didnt have to spend more than a few days apart. It gives me chills just thinking about how wonderful that must be for them.

Im here for you if you ever need to talk.
