June tenth was when my Aunt Nana's mom went on to a better place. I've only been to a few funerals, but I hadn't seen one where so many people got together so quickly. Her vigil started the night she passed away and the home was crowded. By Sunday, the day of her service and funeral, people from all over Chile had managed to get there. She was a mother to so many people just because she would reach out to anyone who needed it. Even though I never met her before then (at least not that I remember) I knew that my parents had lived by her for a few months, so I still felt connected. I'm glad I was there for my aunt and that her and her family received support from so many people. The funeral was beautiful, but I'll let the pictures of that day speak for themselves.
R.I.P
