My great grandfather passed away last night, he had been sick for a long time and i watched as he slowly faded away, watched as his sons visited time and time again wondering if this time would really be the last time. He turned 87 on May 29th, he made it exactly a month after his birthday- He made it to my 16th birthday and i wont ever forget that. That man meant so much to me, i will never forget fishing with him as a kid, i will never forget riding through the woods that he maintained so we could do so, i will never forget every funny or inspiring story about him my grammy has ever told me. I wish i could have seen him one last time, but i know in my heart that he felt my love regardless. I will miss him so so dearly, and i hope he rests as peacefully as one can.
Tiny update i visited my family learned and he went in the most peaceful and best way he could have, my grandmother is in good spirits and said she knows he will always be with her, and with us .

Death is natural, It's inevitable, and the pain it causes is unimaginable. But I need you to remember that no matter how you're feeling, whether it's right now or in a few years, it's completely normal. I know it's shocking to suddenly see that he's no longer around, and there will be moments where it simply doesn't feel like he's gone at all, but it will be okay. You will be okay. It'll definitely be hard at first, and honestly in my experience with death and loss, the feeling doesn't really go away, but it will get easier with time. For now I just need you to focus on processing whatever your feeling in a healthy way and if you ever need to vent about it, you can always send me a message
Thank you so much, seriously. I just went and visited my grandmother and family and am feeling much much better now.
