Take that yellow beast out for a good long drive, do it over the weekend when there's no traffic.
Start really early, before six at least and just blast on a twisty roads (I'm sure you can find something around there) and while the sun is raising up, keep them revs high and brakes warm, let that flat six scream for joy of driving fast.
Then stop at some nice very quiet place where you can see the sun coming up.
Take a look at the hot air coming through the rear lid and making waves in front of that sun, listen the exhaust "ticking" , think about stuff and let the bad feeling come out.
Then smile because your grandma has been watching you all morning blasting through those roads, seeing the sadness fading little and she's happy to see you, smiling.

Rennlist is truly a great place. Thank you all for your kind words of thought! It really goes along way.
Most definitely, I will always cherrish the memories of spending time with Grandma. Selfishly, we as humans, never want to let-go, despite the pain of old age our elderly loved-ones endure. But, I have to be happy for her as she is now pain free, and enjoying a much better after-life. I hope to view her funeral as a celebration, for her.
Thank you..
