Grandma Tutu passed away this evening. She was 97 years old.
It makes me smile to imagine her dancing around the spirit world surrounded by her loved ones. I know she is happy to be
dancing again.
Mckinlay and I were able to visit with her while we were in Utah this summer. Tutu loved watching Mckinlay running around her room (and stealing all her M&Ms) and she was so tickled that her name was "Mckinlay."
I took this sweet video of "Tink" and his "Shweet-hart," and thought you might enjoy it too.

I love you Tutu! And I want to join with the rest of the McKinlay family in thanking our Heavenly Father for the blessing she was in our lives and for the blessing it is that she is now on the other side.
What an awesome tribute...She was so cute and I too am glad that she is able to dance again. Isn't it great to have an eternal perspective? I am sure she was a great tutu.
ReplyDeleteYou are the best. You coming out? I wish... I wish I could see you all the time and just hang. You are one in a million sis.

ReplyDeleteShweet-hart!! Oh how I love our grandma! Thanks for putting that video clip up! I'm here in San Fran so I didn't get a chance to say goodbye. I'm glad I got to hear her say "shweet-hart!" again. And thanks for your great words of comfort on my blog! I still read them from time to time when I need an extra boost out here. Love you!

ReplyDeleteMegs, that was such a sweet clip of Art and Maude--I loved it! She was such a dear and the Manoa Hallstroms all loved her! She will be missed. Thinking of you and all of your family during this time...
