Great Grandma
I am crying at the ceremony.
I am too young to celebrate your life like everyone else.
You lived a full long life and we are beyond blessed for that.
After the ceremony Iām reintroduced to distant cousins.
And I used to feel embarrassed and ashamed to say this but that day slowly became one of my favorites.
I have never had such a good day with relatives until then.
After the funeral we went to my aunts birthday party and it only got better from there.
I miss you and I miss my cousins I rarely see.
