Pretty things for a sad day

[minxy]

My grandmother has quietly, peacefully died. I can't find a scanner to show you some of the neat images I have of her, or that remind me of her, but I can show you some of these photos from around the world. Nana also travelled, so I think it's a nice way to give today.

Thanks to ng_photo for posting a lovely picture today and giving me the idea. These photos are some that we are considering printing to display in my house in the ongoing decoration project.

Those are lovely pictures, especially the penguins and the elephants. May your grief be gentle and your memories last a lifetime.

I'm glad I put the penguins in there, then, I was worried they were too... I don't know what I was worried about, but I'm glad you liked them.

Also, yay for signs. That makes me happy, your icon.

These pictures speak of an amazing, full life. She was lucky to have the means to travel, but luckier still to have you. {{{{{{{{{{{{{Minxy}}}}}}}}}}}

She was a cool broad, that's for sure. I'll miss her.

She was blessed, and you were blessed. Remember her with love, and continue to be glad that she went in peace.

Blessings abound. I'm absolutely sure of that. It was a gracious, graceful passing.

Thanks.

Thank you for the beautiful pictures, on a day in which the internets? ALL WRONG.

Oh man, I feel you. Pretty things, that's what we need today.

I'm going to pack it in and live at cuteoverload or ng_photo if the internets don't get their act together soon.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Minxy.

I'm glad you got that last visit in.

My favorite is the yawning cheetah -- or possibly the sardonic look on that elephant's face. (What! All elephants have the capacity to look sardonic.)

[dvswraatins.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry for your loss. /hugs/

Those are some lovely images though :)

[minnow1212.livejournal.com]

:hugs: I love that cheetah one.
