Saying I LOVE YOU For the Last Time! Always wished I could say I love you for the last time. One of the best female role models I could ever ask for is Susie Mae Spear. My great grandmother always did for those before doing for herself. I could not ask for a better great grandmother. If I could meet and spend an evening with again, I would cry. My great grandmother passed away two weeks after my auntie passed away. The family did not know what to do so we just cried. My great grandmother was the backbone of the family. Whenever we were having problems, we went to great grandmother because we knew she had the solution to every little thing. When we meet again, there would not be a conversation, there will more so be crying and laughter. We would reminisce on the past. All the good and bad times we have had throughout life. I would inform her on how the family has changed over the past two years. Every since she passed away, everyone has been separating and slipping away. I would tell her how I wish she would have never died because then maybe I would have a reason to get along with my family and not be ready to move way. After we finish talking about the family, I would tell my great grandmother how much I love her for the last time. When she was sick, I did not want to see her because I would not have done anything but stood there and cried. I would not know if I should be happy because I knew GOD was calling her home or if I should be sad because she was on her death bed. So, since I was so confused on what my emotions should be, I just decided not to see her at all. Once it was announced that my great grandmother was dead, I felt bad because I never told her that I loved her. So again, I wish I could say I Love Her for the last time.
