My grandmother passed away the day before July 4th in 2018. So I ended up creating this memorial page to put in my planner one year later in 2019.
Below is this poem that I included on the page and read at her funeral.
Honoring my dad this Veterans Day who passed away in 2007. He was in the US navy ⚓️🚢 from ’72-’73.
I was inspired by the Freddie Mercury birthday spread I did in my planner last year – his birthday is the 5th – that I decided to do another one this year. I paired the printable stickers that I ordered from Etsy with some scrapbook paper and the functional sticker book from the Happy Planner 😁
My grandmother passed away the day before July 4th in 2018 and I made this memorial page for her in my Happy Planner. I included some family pictures. I also found stickers that represented her favorite things and reminded me of her.
I wrote the following poem and read it at her funeral. I also included it on my page.
I wrote this little poem to say how much you mean to me
I’ll miss your love for chocolate milk, Judge Judy and jeopardy
You were always there for me
whenever I needed you
You always made me feel better
whenever I was feeling blue
Your love for history
made you the perfect candidate
To help me with my school projects,
so they would not be late
You were a very strong woman,
one whom I admire
Your knowledge, wisdom and generosity are some things to which I aspire
It really hurt to see you suffer,
you just wanted the pain to cease
I’m sad to see you go,
but I’m glad you are finally at peace

My dad gave me this Bible on my 15th birthday, the same year that I became a Christian and I shared it 6 years ago on the 10th year anniversary of his passing. I thought it was really cool that it showed up today in my memories the day after Father’s Day this year. I especially love his inscription to me in the last paragraph, “whenever you need me, I’ll be here for you and when I can’t be just remember Jesus is in your heart now, so you can talk to Him!!”
The Bible says in Psalm 68:5 that God is “A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling.” (NIV) So, I’m grateful that even though my earthly father is no longer with me, I still have a Father in Heaven who looks over and cares for me! 🥰🙌
