I have many memories with my great grandmother even though we never called her that it was always “nana”. I miss her so much and I haven’t heard her voice since around August 11th 2019 because that’s where it all began and she couldn’t really speak but still i hear her voice on my head as if she sitting right next me. There are endless things I would like to say to you but forever and always I love you❤.
