my nana was the best person there was she was the sweets out of many souls she did so much for everybody around her she was always my person that I went to talk to about all of my problems and she would just sit there and talk to me about anything and help me with all of my problems the one day on christmas when I had gave her a phone for a christmas present and the first thing I wanted to do was put my number in there so that I could always call her and always make sure that she knew I loved her. I just wish that I could have told nana how I felt about her before she left to go up to god. I love you nana-Chloe Mathey
