Prayers for peace and reconciliation to continue to grow in my family, as it began to do at my grandmother’s funeral on the 23rd.



Perhaps the family may not have been unkind in this and may have wanted to protect your daughter from seeing her grandfather as dead? I wouldn’t want my children or grandchildren to go through that but just to remember me and their father/grandfather as they wish, not for the memory to be overridden by the retouched dead face although some people are okay with this way of saying goodbye and even find it necessary in some way.Praying for you,for when my wife mother died thing,s went down hill,than when my father in law died, my daughter was-en, allow too even view her grandfather at the Funeral home. Praying now for you. :
