On the bright side, everything has been upbeat since, rather than the sulking that most people do in the aftermath of a loved ones passing. Just got to remember to laugh and enjoy life, much like my grandfather did. ;) Thanks all for the condolences.

I caught your post through javablogs.com's feed and it hit home since my Grandmother passed away the weekend before last with basically the same scenario. In her case she passed before the life support was removed, which I am somewhat thankful for - my Grandfather didn't have to make the decision. I arrived at the hospital as the helicopter carrying her landed (I was at a client near the hospital when I got the call on Friday afternoon) and by the time I actually got to go in to see her she was a shell of herself, basically gone already, but with the machinery keeping her 'alive'. That's certainly not the way I will remember her either - more of the pushy old Hungarian lady who could cook like nobody's business and loved her great grandchildren more than anything on earth. Anyways, please accept my deepest sympathies for your loss. You don’t know me, but please accept my condolences on your loss.
