All at peace, but breaking up is hard to do

This has been a rough week...
I had one last week of work at Stardust, preparing to start rehearsals for TheatreWorks USA's national tour of A Christmas Carol, when I got a phone call from my brother that my sweet grandmother, who has been suffering with parkinson's disease for the past 7 years, suffered from a stroke. Next thing I know I'm on a plane to Alabama. She past away last night at about 10pm.
I had a bit of a breakdown...but I'm fine now.
Today I spent the day with my grandfather, mom, my aunt and uncle preparing funeral arrangements- picture collages, displays, and eating lots of awesome food from a loving community that loved my grandmother so much.
When you lose someone, especially as special as Marcelle Fields Lyons it makes you think how people will react when you pass.
I'm very blessed to have a loving family especially grandparents who inspire me to be someone who leaves behind a mark of unconditional love and compassion.
I will miss her.
We are celebrating her life on Saturday at noon in Florence, AL... and I'm sure she will be pleased by the ceremony we have put together in her honor.
Thank you so much for your kind thoughts and prayers.
