My beautiful Grandmother, Clarice Darlene Durkee ,passed away on August 22, 2013 at the age of 93. I wanted to share some of the images from her memorial and the time the family had to spend together. There were lots of tears shed that weekend. It will be very strange not having her around or hearing her voice again. I am happy that she lived a long and full life and we did our best to celebrate her life and to remember all the great times we had with her. She will be missed more than you know!

Uncle Jim sharing heartfelt words 
Angela telling funny stories of Grandma and then making everyone cry at the end. 
- I decided to talk about how Grandma’s life inspired me.
Final words from the Pastor

This image says it all!

We got to spend quality time with each other before and after the memorial which was nice.
