There is no other person that could light up a room the way you did. No one who could entertain someone for an unlimited amount of time the way you did with your guests. You were such a cornerstone in my life and I will live every day reminiscing of the incredible times we had together. I will never forget the stories of valuable life experiences and life lessons that you have taught me throughout our time together. I love you and miss you Nanny.

Nanny,
You will forever be a hero to me. Your were like my bestfriend and we always had great conversations. I will never forget all your clothes, purses, shoes and jewelry that I would try on with you, I just thought it was the most fun thing. You were an amazing women who touched so many people's lives. The streanghth and perseverance you had was unbreakable. I will always remember how proud of a grandmother you were. Your now up in Heaven and out of your pain. It will be hard for us on Earth to adjust to not seeing your smiling face, but I know you will give us some of the incredible strenghth you had to get by. I'm sure your up there with your parents, brother, sister, and my sister. I have always loved you and always will. One day I will be able to tell my children and grandchildren about my amazing grandmom. Now that I have an angel in Heaven, I hope you watch over me and become my guardian. I will one day see you again. I love you.
