It was a beautiful day. The service was full of music and I thought it really turned out nicely. The wake back on Sept 2nd was really the funeral for me so although I was still emotional, I feel I was able to celebrate her life and be present. It was special that so many cousins that I had grown up with flew from Europe and across the country to be here and the nostalgia was magnetic.
Thank you Nagymama for bringing this family together. I have such fond memories of my childhood with all the cousins by the pool. How lucky I am to have grown up with my mom and grandmother by my side. And then to have had 2 girls of my own and be a part of a 4th generation line of women. I feel so fortunate to live life, see, and experience the different stages of life simultaneously. It is something I’ll cherish forever.
