    R.I.P. Grandma. I'll miss you.

    My grandmother passed away this afternoon at 94. I found out when I got done playing softball and turned my phone back on. She was my last living grandparent and was one of the most influential people in my life. She was an incredibly sweet lady, a model Christian, and she will be sorely missed. I have freight on board that has to be in Kansas City and I'll be pulling an all nighter so I can deliver in the morning, grab some sleep, and then head straight back home. I'll have more to say later when I'm in more of a frame of mind to type.

    ORH, you and your family will be in my prayers. Such a long life though. Enjoy the memories as you join with the rest of your family to send her along.

    My condolences and prayers as well, ORH.

    It sounds like your grandma was a great lady. 94 is a life well-lived. It would be an honor to be thought of as your grandmother is.
