We love and miss you Nanna. The things you taught me will never be forgotten. I will never forget the stories of the old times nor will I ever let go of the memories of a child hood that you were every part of that I could soak up. There are not many women that could begin to catch up to your foot steps much less begin to think of walking in them. Thru good times and bad times you always loved me. I will always remain true to the promises I made to you the last time I saw you. There will never be enough space or time to praise you for all that you have done. I hope you have found your lost ones along with eternal peace and happiness. Life isnt easy and never will be but I will always carry you in my heart and with that thought I can only say you will never be forgotten....
