On Sunday last week my Grandmother passed away. I flew to Chicago for the funeral. It has been 9 years since I was there. I was born outside of Chicago and at one time, all of my family lived there. Not anymore. Now I have a couple of uncles and a couple of cousins, that is about it. I must say, it was a walk down memory lane.
The funeral itself was actually fun, as much fun as a funeral could actually be. Lots of reminiscing and laughing. I do believe that it is the type of funeral that my grandmother would of liked.
I got home on Saturday morning and I am still recovering. Not from the funeral, but from all the fried food I ate...and I ate a ton of fried food. It was excellent though- fried pickles, tenderlions, fried chicken and onion rings.
We did take some pictures, which I will post when I upload them a little later.
