Nan, I miss you so much. I wish I was able to say goodbye. I was planning on visiting you again in July, when my classes at school ended and I could spend more time with you. Im happy that I was able to visit you during my Spring break. It was just like old times hanging out at Dads house with you all day and watching our favorite shows. I still watch "Golden girls" all the time and think of you. Your the best grandmother anyone could ask for and I cherish all the times we have spent together. I love you and I an relieved to know that you are no longer suffering anymore.
Love always and forever,
your granddaughter Ashley
