While a funeral is a sad occasion to gather, I felt incredibly blessed to be home amongst family as we celebrated Grandma’s life. She was a beautiful person and her constant example of selflessly loving others has had an incredible impact on me.
My quick visit home was bitter-sweet; although it was very sad to say goodbye to Grandma, it was wonderful getting to see family and friends (not to mention getting a little dose of Canadian winter). I am now safely back in Bolivia and Tim is glad to have me home.
