Hello NaNa, I know I am late but my heart is still heavy. I know I didn´t always say much but I truly loved you and Grandpa. I still sit back and remember all the good times. I still remember when you told me if you knew I was left handed you would have corrected me too. I just wanted to say I love you and will always remember you. Your Third Oldest Grand Child, Deante

I can go there, but its so hard because you're not there in the flesh anymore! The day that God himself, called you home, I know...
