Try lighting a candle, preferably an unused one, turning off all other lighting in the room and going into a deep, meditative state. In this state, visualise a protective circle around yourself and, if possible, ask your spirit guide or matron/patron deity to protect you during the communication with your grandmother and to make sure that it is her you're communicating with and not just a trickster spirit or unintentional thoughtform. Next, whilst still in the meditative state, state that you wish to communicate with your grandmother, using her full name and stating the names of her parents too (if possible) and any other details to help ensure it is her and not another spirit. You may have to wait or make the request several times, but when she does appear talk to her as though she were still alive in the physical world too.
When you are ready to say goodbye, tell her that she is free to go and say goodbye in a warm, loving, caring way. (IMG:

Obviously that's not a rigid ritual or anything, more of a guideline, so do what feels natural to you! (IMG:
