Nan,
Words will never ever begin to describe how much you meant to me! You were my rock, or shall I say "Gram-cracker!" I am truly blessed to have lived with you throughout the most important years of my life! You taught me so much that I will forever hold close to my heart. We spent countless hours watching the "idiot box", cooking together, laughing, telling old stories, etc. I will never forget how excited you were to come watch one of my games and then open the paper the next day to cut out the clip from it to save for me! Your love and support for your grandkids goes unmatched! A piece of my heart now lives in heaven and I will miss you forever! Until we meet again, rest in paradise! I love you more than you will ever know!

Nanny,
Words can't describe the major role, influence and impact you made in my life. From 15 years old, I remember you dropping Cody off at the library and how excited you were to meet me. You welcomed me into your family and home from day 1 and treated me as your own grandchild. It was a blessing to live under the same roof with you. It shaped my life in so many ways, I was given a 2nd family, shared amazingly fun family holidays, I got to learn from you, cry, laugh and cook with you, hear your life stories and lessons while going through old photo albums together, your guidance, constant encouragement and your honest constructive criticism. Ill always admire how fun and funny you were, you're strength, and your genuine way of just being you with such pizzaz.
Ill forever miss hearing you call downstairs "cody, dina, suppa's ready" and coming upstairs watching older films and hallmark shows all together along with Chloe, (who had her own favorite chair accross from you lol) having dinners together, and all our laughs and great conversations. I'll miss you bringing home those warm cookies from work and hearing your work stories with the kids. Helping you get ready for bed and asking me "whose car is that? are the doors locked?" and the trust that you had in me. Ill never forget how happy you were when I told you cody and I were engaged and how happy you were for us. The love you gave me was more than I could ever ask for. I wish those times together would have never ended. I'll always remember all the amazing memories we got to build together. Words can't express how truly forever grateful, blessed and thankful I am for you and mom bringing me in and loving me. Thank you for giving me that and so much more. Rest peacefully, I will always love you and miss you nanny.

Nanny,
I can't explain how lucky I am to have grown up with you under the same roof. Countless dinners, funny stories, TV time and coversations about life that I will never forget. I will love and miss you always. I know you are at peace and with your loved ones who passed before you. Give Chloe a kiss for me.
Love always,
Cody
