my grandmothers service was today and karma sured showed its ways. relatives i have never met showed up and all was by chance? they are from poland never been here before,turns out they are my grandmothers mothers family and the biggest trip of all their names are the same as 3 of my daughters! hazel,adeline and sadie! they are the nicest people i have ever met and will be in this country for 6 mon. and are going to come to our home for a family reuion , we have never had one before. the last words sadie said to me was your granmother brought us together cause she did not want you to be alone. i knew she was so right, i lost a wonderful person and have gained a whole new family.

they are staying w/ my grandmothers brother about an hour away,wish they could stay for christmas,then again maybe christmas will come early this year.

Yup, I'd say karma was definitely exerting itself. Or your grandmother was arranging things from afar. Either way, it sounds like more than a coincidence to me!! Especially the name thing. How wonderful that you got to meet your family--take lots of pictures!!!!

I'm driving to Ohio to visit my grandmother in a few weeks, and will relish every minute of the visit.

Enjoy your family reunion!
