Farewell Ms. Gladys

We buried Ms. Gladys three days ago, she was my husband's step grandmother. Ms. Gladys' son is even married to his mother on top of Ms. Gladys having been married to my husband's Grandfather. So, needless to say she has been a very big part of my DH's life. She was the Matriarch of the family, a community servant for over 40 yrs as a nurse. The great loved her, the most respected her, and the doctors and her patiens feared her. lol . She will be missed.
She once told me of my own Grandda, who died when I was only a baby, and how she would nurse him when he would come in the back door of the hospital for treatments. She told me that he didn't want any one's pitty of his cancer so he would come in the back so no one would know.
She left with us her one remaining son Harold (a wonderful man who is married to my MIL), his children, the children of her deseased daughter, her Step children Paul Elbert (my FIL) Patsy and Marie, and all the Grandchildren and Great Grands of them all. She has been a Great Grandmother to our daughter Kayla for all the years that she has been.
Her funeral, a sad occation, was a great turnout of the families and the community that she served and loved for so many years. It was the only time I have ever seen my husband shed a tear, but then again it was his Grandmother's funeral.
Would you believe it was his first funeral ever, where as I have gone to more than 15 in my life ?
