Nana,
Your soul is alive and well. I know for a fact, you are in heaven with our heavenly Father. I don't think it has fully hit me that you are no longer physically here with us. However I have peace in knowing that our physical lives on Earth were never designed to be permanent, but that our spiritual lives are eternal. And for that reason I know I will see you again.
Enjoy the next chapter of your eternal life. I will see you again one day.
Love,
Mycah

My heart is broken for my family. Aunty was the fire in all of our lives. Her smile was room filling and her quick look to let you know who she was.... She loved with everything and was so proud of her children and her grandchildren. Missed doesn't explain enough of how they will feel. How we will feel. I love her, I love my family and pray for a calmness. Aunty is at peace with so many of our loved ones and is so happy. God grant our family peace as her children learn to breath without their mother. Bon Dia Aunty!
