Home
We got back in town late last night. It was a nice funeral. Farmor planned her own funeral very well. Even down to every last detail. Carl and the rest of his cousins (the grandsons) were the pall bearers so I am glad he was able to go.

It was nice to be able to see most of my family on Saturday and Sunday and then we spent the other three days with Carls family and the funeral plans. We had the viewing on Monday night. It was actually one of the more uplifting viewings that I have been too. But the funeral on Tuesday was much more somber. It was expected for her to pass, but most were suprised that she passed so soon. But she has been ready for some time. She had been making her own plans including writing her own obituary in English and not Swedish!

It was very good to see everyone and some family we haven't seen for a few years! It's always nice to come home too!
