Condolences to all the family! We will cherish those pictures and memories. You had a heart of gold Prima. We will always remember you and those loud laughters, just know you were the light of the party even though those karaoke skills hadn't quite kicked in for neither of us. Rest in Peace and until we meet again Emeli.
