Oh nana, you were there for my first breath and I was there for your last. Our everyday late night calls and messages are paused forever. All now I have is memories, I lived with you for my whole life you gave me my name, you were suppose to live forever. I miss you so much, words cant describe the emptiness I feel. I know Jesus opened his arms wide open for you and has healed you from all the pain. I love you so so much
