In loving memory of Nanna (1923-2007)

Posted 10-29-2007 at 06:50 PM by geekchick

I would like to share a few things with you about my Nanna.

When we were little, Nanna would look after us when mum and dad went out. I remember nanna brought some chalk so we could draw and write on the concrete and riding our bikes in the backyard, and her giving us rides in her jeep around her backyard.

Nanna would spoil us she gave us money so we could buy some lollies from the milk bar just across the street from her home. When we turned 18 years old and got our license, sometimes she sould send us money and fuel vouchers in the post.

We always showed Nanna we loved her. Nanna loved watching up growing up and was always proud of who we are.

In early 95, i remember nanna took stewart and i to the MCG for the first time to see the Tigers against the Cats. It was a cold and wet day. I remember Tiger bet the Cats by about 20npoints. Nanna was very happy about that.

Last year, Nanna took Melissa, Amy and i to the RSL for lunch with them. We had chat about university and what we were planning on doing later in the life. She always ordered grilled fish, chips and salad but she never ate the salad.

We loved to visit Nanna to cheer her up and she would love to chat and hear our stories of what we'd been up to. she always loved to see my art work.

Last Saturday in the afternoon, i stopped at nannas place and gave her a surprise vist with my old pal before we went to Croydon to house sit. I can remember her face was surprised but very happy to see us. We stayed and had chat for a while. Nanna asked me if i want to meet her old friend Dotty. I haven't seen Dotty for a while so we went for a walked around to see her. I remember nanna having a great time chatting, laughing and gossiping with Dotty. Dotty drove us back to Nanna's house because it was raining.

I remember her voice say "Goodbye, Love" with that last cuddle. Those words are still inside my head. When i got into the car, i will always remember that Nanna stood at the front door and waved while i drove away. I will never forget and i will keep that memory in my mind forever.

We love you and we will always miss you.

May you rest in peace.

Love your Granddaughter,

Geekchick
