Prayers needed...

My dad just called me and told me that my grandmother passed away about an hour ago. This is not my dad's mother, it is his step-mother but she was still a very huge part of our lives. My main concern is my grandfather. He is a great man that has had many struggles in his life and could use the prayers to get through this. He is a strong man that has fought cancer and won (even though he lost his voice box), he has dealt with extreme poverty and fought an alcohol addiction so I know he can make it. He is one of the most loving people I have ever known.
