Nana Granman what can I say. This definitely wasn't the plan. We used to have many fun conversations that would end with "you'll keep". This was supposed to be your time to enjoy and relax but it has cut short unexpectedly like your time with us. You were an amazing mother in law and Nana. I will always remember the Christmas Star Trek Wall Hanging and the horrified look an Janine's face. Family was very important to you but the Grand Kids were top of the pile. I know Briana and Kenzie thought the world of you and only time is going heal that wound. Enjoy the Pokies were ever you are and say Hi to Dad. P.S. Kenzie found you secret stashes yesterday. Miss and Love you Michael.
