"“You are my Sunshine, my only Sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. You’ll never know Dear, how much I love you, so please don’t take my Sunshine away”. There are no words to describe the pain and loss I feel since you passed away. You were my heart and soul, and its been broken in to a million pieces. My life now will never be the same without you. I love you more than life itself, my Nana Dear. What lessons the heartache, is knowing that you’re no longer in pain and suffering. You were a fighter until the very end. I will treasure the memories of you, until I am with you again. Sweet dreams my Beautiful Angel. "
