Grandma Mason

I've been thinking about Grandma Mason off and on since Dad called yesterday morning to say that she passed away during the night. It was unexpected, though she had been ill for a week; a cold, nothing major.

On the way home from Seminary graduation on Sunday I wondered aloud to Amber how long Grandma and Grandpa would be with us. I think maybe the spirit was stirring my heart to know of things to come; I've certainly played this out in my mind before, but there was some feeling to the thought Sunday. It would have been about the time that Grandpa and Dad were administering to Grandma; Dad said that as they took their hands from her head that he was prompted that she didn't have long on the earth, not how long, just not long.

I shed a few tears but that's always just a fleeting feeling since it's mostly for those of us who will miss her, especially Grandpa. But the sadness turned to joy when I thought that now Grandma can walk! (She was in a wheel chair for more than 50 years because of polio.) Of course that made the tears flow more freely. I imagine that she went right to work in a Temple, but maybe there is something more important than that, if there is, she's doing it.

There is so much about Mary Lou Mason that was remarkable! So many things that she did despite her physical challenges. I feel very blessed that I am part of her legacy of faith, of life, and of endurance. I didn't get to say goodbye so i will say I love you Grandma, Thank you for your triumphant life!
