           I am sorry for the loss of your Nana and Great-Nana.
I am sure you each have great stories to tell and memories to share. Tell them often and remember you were loved by her.
Life starts with a hello there at your birth, then one day we say goodbyes and it hurts, only temporarily though. In time we have a great reunion again. Then you can say hello there again.
          Great promise, Grandma, Nana until we meet again we will remember you and keep our families loving all that you loved and hopefully experience all that you have enjoyed in your 98 years of a life well lived.

Growing up, some of the best weekends were waking up to Dad's whistling in the kitchen and finding out we were driving to stay at Nana's house.

You taught me the importance of slowing down and appreciating the simple things. Breakfast with lots of oj, spent watching the birds eat theirs in the window box. Swinging on the patio till the pebbled floor stung my feet, just to feel the breeze. Being shown your incredibly  talented hobby of the most intricate dioramas in the tinest egg shells. Giving me my own important job while staying of scooping a massive cup of peanuts to feed the raccoons at night in the window box. Going to bed, but sometimes getting the chance to snuggle with you in yours instead.

You may have only known me for 27 years of your life, but I knew you for all of mine. I will always remember you for the comfort and warmth you radiated. I love you, Nana. Give Grandpa lots of kisses.

Nana,

I remember fondest visits with you. The Russian nesting dolls. The big hill in the back yard where my sister and I used to roll down on. Treats every visit. You were a great nana, and had lived a great, long life. They say you die twice. One time when you stop breathing and a second time, a bit later on, when somebody says your name for the last time. And in this instance, you will live forever in our hearts. I hope you enjoy your visit with family in heaven. I hope to visit when my time comes as well. I love you.

Your grandson,

Mitchell
