I've always heard that witnessing someone die can be a spiritual experience and I've never really doubted it, but its one thing to hear about it and another to actually be there when it does happen. Today I was able to be present when my sweet grandfather passed away. It was a very touching moment. He passed on to his next life while the hymn, "Be Still My Soul" was playing in the background. It is something I will always remember. I'm so grateful that he is finally back with my grandma and they can be together forever. What a blessing it is to have this knowledge! The Gospel is true!! How wonderful that God loves us so much that he lets us live together forever with the ones we truly love. It should be a sad thing, but I'm truly happy for him and my grandma. My heart is at peace and I'm just grateful for the awesome experience I had today!
