It's impossible to just share one memory about Nana. She has ALWAYS been there for me and with me through the many phases of my life. I always just knew I could count on Nana. When I look at the many pictures I have of her so many happy memories flood my thoughts. She was always the voice of reason no matter what was going on.
When I was younger, I had a habit of forgetting to put my car in park before I got out. For some reason, Nana was one of my passengers almost every time. Once, my car actually rolled toward a busy street with Nana and Sarah, who was very young and the time. The vehicle hit a curb and stopped before it rolled into traffic. If I were the one rolling in the vehicle I most likely would have freaked out but not Nana. She was completely calm as I approached the vehicle up on the curb. She just shook her head and said, "Bridgette ... Bridgette." Something about her calmness always brought me peace.
Nana holds a special place in so many peoples' hearts. Someone actually told me that she was everyone's Nana and I completely agree.
I don't know how I will ever heal from losing her here on Earth but I am completely at peace knowing she has been welcomed Home in Jesus' open arms and she is now reunited with our loved ones that went Home before her.
