As I write this I still am lost for words as what to say and how to feel… I am Alice Wolfe’s youngest Grandchild, Kari. It’s been a little over a week that she has passed and not quite a week since her funeral and so much remains unsaid. Although I spoke at her funeral last week I didn’t know what to say, and didn’t want to show my emotion in front of everyone, so I kept short and sweet, to the point, I also gave put the piece of paper that I wrote everything out in with her. I guess that was okay cause instead of reading something I said everything that I had to say came directly from the heart. With signing this guestbook not sure if it’s going to be a long or a short post. As I have so much to say but don’t want to bore anyone else reading this out of their mind. So I will just wing it… I interacted and spent my Grandmother’s last week alive, I was with her not when she died, but up til a day and half before she fell the second time. I hated leaving as I didn’t want too, but reassured her that I’d come back up the following week to be with her, which in reality I came back not to visit but say good-bye to my grandma. I always referred to her as a character from winnie the pooh, “Tiger,” why? I don’t know really, maybe cause she could never sit still long enough and she was always up and bouncing around. She was never meant for a wheel chair or to stay in bed she was meant to be bouncing and walking around. I believe she was a woman of so much strength, as she lost so much in her life, she had so much strength. I have been told most of my life I am like my Grandma Alice in so many ways cause I have a heart of gold like she does. Always taking care of others, taking on their worries as my own. I never used to want to admit that, but today I am proud to say I am like her in that way. I knew a lot that there was to know about my grandmother, as she told me so freely as I got older, she told me of times in history through her eyes, and told me ways to live according to faith. Now as I’m doing my best to get back on the scale and path of my own life. I will forever love my Grandma, not just as a grandma but a close dear friend, and so much more! I Love You and I know you won’t be very far from me cause you will and your memories will live in my heart forever. One more thought that I want to leave everyone who see’s this post, the last week she was alive, she kept saying and persisting she just wanted to go home and I don’t think she was talking about her home here on earth, she was wanting to just go home to be with God…##imported-begin##Kari Wolfe##imported-end##
