Grandma Duck

Today was Grandma Duck's funeral.  She died exactly one month after Grandpa Duck.  She was 93.  They were married for 72 years.  Holy moly what a life she lived.  She was hilarious, she would go stock up on supplies and the grandkids and great-grandkids loved her joke supplies which she almost always had on hand; whoopie cushions, fake poop, fake vomit, a farting machine, and a nut can that had a snake that would pop out when it was opened.  So it was fitting that one of the grandkids put some fake vomit in the casket with her.  She went back to school and got her nursing degree when she was 50, she was a labor and delivery nurse.  My mother-in-law just retired, she too was a labor and delivery nurse.

I have seen it happen so many times when people have been together for so long.

But they're still together now, really, aren't they?
