Dear friends, family and loved ones who read this blog:
I just learned a few hours ago about the death of my Grandma Liechty. From what little I've gathered up to now, she died peacefully Wednesday evening. Her viewing is happening even as I write this. I wish I could be there.
This is not unexpected. I spoke with my mom and dad this past weekend and knew that she was not doing well. She was 96 and had been in declining health for a quite awhile. I'm grateful for the end of her suffering. And I'm grateful for her long and, until the last few years, very healthy life. She drove until she was 90 and lived independently until 5 years ago. And I'm grateful that she lived a life full of love, both given and received. And I'm grateful to have had a grandma that I (and the rest of my family) at times got such a kick out of!!!
It is a good, good life.

Matt, I'm so sorry. I wish that you could be there with your family too. It's so hard to be really far away in times like these! I love you, Joy
Hey Matt... how tough it must be to be away during this time. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family.
Hey Matt and Matt,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'll be thinking about you and keeping you in my prayers.

I am so sorry for you not being able to share with your family during this time.
Cindy and I attended the funeral and even though we didn't know your grandmother being with your family was very special for us.
God bless and know you have been in our prayers.
Tim & Cindy
