It's interesting, I've heard that sometimes people won't pass away until they're alone. It happened with my dad. We were there with him, and at some point we all went out into the dining room and the three of us were sitting there at the table, looking at pictures of him in the photo album, remembering the good times, and when we went to check on him again, he was gone. I'd read about that in the literature hospice gave us, that sometimes it happens that way.
My deepest sympathies on the loss of your grandmother. It sounds like she was a very special lady, and I'm pleased that you have the final memories of her that you do. Sounds like she passed away peacefully with her family near, and it's hard to ask for more than that. My thoughts are with you.
