Last Thursday night our sweet little Grandma Mabel Violet Thomas slipped away after her fight with Alzheimers. She was a fighter, it was a struggle to watch. She had stopped eating a week and a half before. So we knew the end was coming soon. Infact she entered a nursing facility the same week that our Father passed away. Grandma was an incredible woman and what a legacy she left. She had five children herself, she left about 27 Grandchildren and up near 50 Great Grandchildren... I will get an exact count on that. There are a lot of us!! We had her burial today and she was buried next to her Husband, our Grandpa, George Thomas, whom left her about 30 years ago. Grandma was a great example to us all with unwavering faith in the Lord. Sweet Memories as we mourn her loss. Her services will be held this Saturday, April 25th at 2:00 for Family and Services will begin at 2:30 at the LDS Church in Orangevale, California on Main Ave.
Whitney, my neice, said the other day , that she thought Grandpa and Great Grandma had gone to China....she said if we say they arent in Heaven then we would stop crying. So, maybe we should visit China, they were both small people they would blend in well...Funny girl!
