    I think we are all going to miss your humour and calmness. The last few years whenever I would ask Nanny how she was doing, she would always say oh not good buddy. I would always say, were you partying to much again last night and she would laugh. I'm going to miss those phone calls. But she's in a better place now and no longer in pain. I love you Nanny

    You were one of the kindest souls I have ever known. You were always so soft spoken and as sweet as the pies and goodies you made when I was young. I have so many memories of you as a little girl and as I grew older I was proud when people told me I look like my mother because she was the same as you! 💕 You were the cutest Nan ever - right out of a storybook 📚 I remember the last few years when we would speak I would always ask how you were and you said "not good my girl not good" I know you were a fighter (that's where I got it) and my heart feels slightly at ease knowing you truly are in a beautiful place that is peaceful and that's where you belong. I'll see you when I get there Nanny 🎇 Shine bright ✨ Ps - I will never ever forget your homemade bread 🍞 or your blueberry pudding (don't worry - momma got it almost perfect to yours!) Love you forever Nanny 💗
