    Nana, I will always remember you for your strength, wisdom, courage, and love. We all miss you very much and we will treasure the way you touched our lives. I am so proud of you and the legacy you left behind. We all have a void in our hearts, but I mean it when I say that heaven gained a new angel the day you left us. Instead of saying goodbye I’ll say see you later. Take care Nana – we love you.

    I will forever remember the courage, strength, and peace Nana maintained while enduring her health situation. Her calm demeanor and mental fortitude will forever be my example when facing difficulty and a situation in which we have little to no control. When talking with her, you would swear you were conversing with someone half her age, as she was sharp, witty, and aware of all current events. She was a very “hip” grandmother! Rest in peace Nana. You will be missed.

    I loved my Mother so very much. I can’t express what she meant to me. We spent so many days talking and sharing our lives. I was always amazed at her intelligence and and creative abilities. I thank God I got to hug her one last time before she left us for eternity. I remember how many times she stood up for me when I was young and how she shared such thoughtful things with me as an adult. I miss our talks so much now, and always will. I thank God for a Mother like her and hope others experience the same. She told me she had a happy life, a good life and I am very grateful that she did. How I wish she could be here today. I will always miss you Mom. I will always love you. May you be blessed for eternity. God please take care of her now.

    “God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, so He put His arms around you and whispered ‘Come to Me’. With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.”
    Nana, you are with us in spirit, watching from up above and forever in our memories that make up our hearts too beautiful to forget. Thank you for blessing us with the love from your heart, your words of wisdom and the joys of being one of your grandchildren. You will always be a woman I never stop admiring.

    My Nana was one of the strongest, most amazing and sweetest ladies I have ever known. She was a beautiful woman who loved her family very much. She had lots of friends, loved knitting, loved playing puzzles and scrabble, and enjoyed playing tennis and golf. She enjoyed playing the piano and laughing – she was known for her laugh. We will all miss her but I know she’s in God’s hands now. I will always and forever love and miss you, Nana.
