In memoriam (Patreon)

My grandmother passed away on the 17th of August, at the respectable age of 96. We said goodbye to her last Tuesday, before she was cremated. 

She remained as healthy and lucid as one can be at such an age to the very end, and we were already very lucky to have been able to enjoy her presence for such a long time.

The ceremony was for direct family only due to corona measures--though it was broadcast for those not allowed to attend--and it was as beautiful as it was heart-rending. 

I'm not a religious person, and I expect death to be simple non-existence. Still, I take solace in the fact that she lived a full, rich life, and enjoyed it to the very end.

I'm going to miss you, grandma.
