My father-in-law passed away in the summer of 2009. My mother-in-law laid down for a little nap before the 2:00 PM funeral vigil and never woke up. We had a double funeral. In life, they did everything together so it seemed natural and fitting that they embarked on their afterlife together, too.

It happens far more often than we know.

My paternal grandfather died in the spring, just before Easter, and my grandmother died less than two months later.

According to her nurse at the bedside, the last word she said was my grandfather’s name.

I am happy for them. They leave these worn out bodies, and enter the Kingdom of Heaven with love.

God Bless them.

Rest In Peace, Mr. and Mrs. Kreger.

When my grandpa died a few years ago, my grandmother was in a nursing home and suffering from dementia (probably not able to understand that he had died). She died in the nursing home while his funeral service was going on in another town.

I bet things like this are more common than you’d think.
