I just found out from my mom that my orther great grandmother, whome we all lovingly refered to as grandma mary, has passed away...
my siblings and i have no grandmothers by blood..
in feb of 1981 my grandmother died (moms mom and i never got to meet her) in feb of 2003, we lost our god mother in aug of 2003 we lost our grandmother (dads mom, and the only one we ever knew) grandad remarried, and we lover her, but still.. in oct of 2004, we lost our great-grandmother (mom's grandmom, she raised me and my brother, and was there for us when our own father wasnt.) last week, my mom called me and told me that our stepdads mom passed away (mom remarried in june 04') we called her grandma tony and we used to play hide and seek with her when she lived with us.. and now my mom just called me and told me that our other great grandmother, (moms paternal grandmom) has just died... we have no grandmothers, no great grandmothers, our children wont have the pleasure of having great grandmothers, like me and my siblings.. i am so upset now its not even funny....
i know death is inevitable.. but in this close proximity... i dont know if i can handle this..

awww.. I'm so sorry to hear about all this That's very sad and I'm sorry for your losses. I can speak from experience, I never knew any of my great-grandparents. They all passed away before I was born. But my grandparents were always so loving and caring to all of us grandkids. I couldn't have asked for better ones than them. I know there's probably nothing I can really say that would make you feel better right now, but just know that they are in a better place, and try to take some comfort in the fact that they're not suffering at all...I know that's hard to do sometimes. If you need to talk, we'll be here for you.

I only ever knew one great-grandparent... my dad's grandmother. She died when I was 7 or so though... and being a stupid little kid, I was always sort of afraid of her because she had white hair But she really was really nice. Fortunately, I still have all my grandparents.

m sorry to hear about your recent loss. Yeah it can really be tough but you just have to be strong through it all, even if it is hard. I never knew my great-grandparents and only know one set of my grandparents. Yeah my grandma islike a mother to me and I cannot imagine losing her.

So sorry Angel; I know how you feel a little, 3 members of my family passed away in a matter of six month before. I'm not too close to my family so it must be much worse for you. I wish there was something we could do to help you better.

Thank you all, but yeah its really messed up.. monday is the funeral for grandma mary... she was the one who introduced me my mom and my brother to the rest of our family... grandma mary was my maternal-grandfathers mom, and the messed up thing was that he didnt have the cajones to tell my mother that she had other, OLDER brothers.. we met them all in 95, so we only knew them for 10 years... i got the phone call about grandma mary's death on 9/16 on my late great grandmother's birthday, had she have lived she would have been 94..
