Where do I begin? Spend the night in her house when she babysat my brother and I , spending vacations or weekends at the cabin , the never ending love, the food, the dinners , the stories, the laughs. Our family is so deeply rooted in love and family, although life pulled us all apart in some way , it never fully could. She was one of my rocks. I only have a few. I love you Aunt NaN. I always will!

Nan was the strongest most honest person I've ever known so it's no surprise her son, my dad, Jeff, was the best man I've ever known. The whole family is amazing. Nan was one of a kind though. She was so very loved by so many people and she will be missed. I remember when I broke my femur and all the teachers thought I was faking. Finally Mrs. Beard came out there and she said to get ahold of my grandma Nan. Nan shows up and tells them no he's really hurt and I laid my head on her thigh and cried cus I was so happy to see her. They called 911 and I spent months in a body cast. I passed out candy at Nans that Halloween cus I couldn't walk yet and it snowed. All the family get togethers at Nans growing up. I would give anything to go back and laugh and eat great food with Nan and dad one more time. I love you Nan and I hope you know how much you mean to me and many others. RiP I'll see you again someday.
