“nanny, you'll be missed, will carry all my memory's in my heart..bless you..will miss you”
“A beautiful Angel is all that is here
Say O'Lord please leave me here
Not ready to leave but has to go
Wants to go back but God says no
A husband and children
Grandchildren and friends
A meaningful life that suddenly ends
An Angel is what she was meant to be
Now thinking of all that she can see
Watching over her family night and day
Saying I love you in her own special way
In the night we sleep and the day we cry
While she watches us all from her star in the sky.
Love you so much Granny I will miss you terribly.”
