It's hard for us on earth to miss a wonderful mother, grandmother, sister and friend.
Nonie was almost always online on her computer, she was always there to have a chat. That's why it's still a shock for me to know it will never happen again. But Nonie is in our memory, I won't forget her. Nonie sent me some presents in the last years and those will remind me of the nice times. I never met Nonie in real during the 12 years we chatted and I regret not have visited her before, she would have loved it. Still I could visit her family soon, if they like it.
