Kent BlogGrandmother Passing
02.03.2006
Dear Dad, I didn’t go into work today after receiving your email about Grandmother’s passing. Someone once told me that when a close family member passed on, spend time soaking up their spirit. I’m doing that as I go through the day. It has brought in a flood of memories to me. The one that I have a special affinity for is the time I had returned to Los Angeles right after being discharged from the Navy. At one point, when I was between addresses, Grandmother gave me a home. I remember getting up every morning to go to work, (I had my first sales gig at Metropolitan Life Insurance Company), and having to push my little MGB out of her driveway to get it started. One morning Grandmother and I were talking, as we always did, about my goals and aspirations. At one point, she said to me…“I don’t know if you will reach your goals, but I know one thing; You’ve got the willpower!” I was 20 years old. I have carried those words with me from that day ‘til this day. She could be pretty ornery though. A couple of times she scared the living daylights out of me. The next day, however, she would cook me a mouth watering meal and that would be the end of it. What I learned from her is, it is not the getting there, it is what you make of the road you take. When you took me to visit Grandmother last year, after not seeing her for many years, I was thrilled to see and be with her. You may remember as she looked at the promo photograph of me and Wendy as Copus, she asked me..."what kind of hat is that you have on"? It is a crown, Grandmother. The one you gave to me!
It’s to the journey we give everything The stops along the way The roads in between Praises be we’re not fooled by the suffering For it’s to the journey We give everything In living In dying In the middle of a dream We give and we take But of nothing Except for the sake Of spreading our wings It’s to the journey We give everything
Fly on, Grandmother, fly on home. Fly on to the place Dad calls ‘A Better Place’. Thank you for showing me that I too have wings. Thank you for what you have given me and for what you have given to all of us. May God rest you up real good! Your work is done. You did your work well. Peace be upon You. Love, Royal
