I mean grandma ten years ago
Thank you for fixing that. A prayer in Jesus for you friend!
May our Heavenly Father comfort you and take the sorrow that you feel and uplift you gently because of the sorrow and loss you feel.
Remember the love you had and showed your grandpa enriched his life which otherwise would not have been.
The Bible's promise is that you will know his love again, so although death is an enemy - 1 Corinthians 15:26 - under Christ the dead will be awakened back to life again with the prospect of everlasting life in view when enemy death is swallowed up forever - Isaiah 25:8
I lost mine just over a year ago. We're with you, as are our prayers. May God pardon all his iniquities and grant him rest with the Saints, and when our Lord comes again, may he be received into Paradise.
I have lost far too many loved ones this year.
You have my sympathy and prayers.

Gone From My Sight
by Henry Van Dyke
I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side,
spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts
for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck
of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.
Then, someone at my side says, "There, she is gone."
Gone where?
Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast,
hull and spar as she was when she left my side.
And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.
Her diminished size is in me -- not in her.
And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone,"
there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices
ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!"
And that is dying...
You have my sympathy and prayers.
