On Friday, Mimi, Sheri's maternal grandmother began made her long journey home. We will miss her greatly, especially in the evenings when we spoke to her as we made the transition from our work day to the evening time at home. We were so glad we had the chance to see her in February while she still had that sparkle in her eye and could flash that devilish grin!

We share the lyrics of the song "Pilgrim Highway" by Mark Erelli below and hope it bring comfort to you should you ever need it.
Pilgrim Highway by Mark Erelli
I'm going down that pilgrim highway
Though none can say for certain where it leads
I believe someday I'll reach a place
Where all my burdens shall be released
So often tested by toil and trial
Onward from the moment we are born
We must be steadfast through every darkened mile
Travelling toward that everlasting morn
So take my hand, brother
Take my hand, sister
In each other we must confide
Many miles to cover
Before we are delivered
Down that pilgrim highway side by side
Though some we love may by the wayside fall
We must never feel abandoned or alone
There'll be a glorious reunion with them all
Just beyond that last bend in the road
