Thoughts and prayers from those who offer such things are still welcome. The family concern that had occupied attention has passed, and since those who are closest to it have opened it up, I can, as well: at 8:32pm last night, my grandmother, Patricia Jean Bryant, passed away. She was 86 years old, and is survived by one son, three daughters, their spouses, eight grandchildren, one step-granddaughter, and several great- and great-great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents, her sisters, her husband, one son, one grandson, and her brother. Per my mother's message elsewhere

How else to react at this point, save with the bare, dry obituary information, is unclear. I might point out a few earlier posts to this webspace as being worth attention, given the circumstances. Others could doubtlessly say more and better.
