In April 2017 I had decided that I was going to visit my grandmother's (Mamie's granddaughter) house with my daughter. It was around my Nanna's birthday and we decided to go and see her. This visit was such a delight. My daughter got to meet her Great-Great-Great Grandma. Not many people could say that they met their Great Grandma's Grandmother. This was a meeting that was 5 generations or 9 decades in the making.
4 months after this great meeting I got a message from my Auntie saying that Nanna passed away and I was in shock. At the funeral home I just couldn't look at my Nanna lying there in her coffin. I tore me to shreds. Even though everyone there has lost a part of their life, she will forever live on in our memories and in our hearts. I have so many memories from 2002-2004 with her. When I called her on her birthday in 2014 and she didn't even know who I was calling her. We spoke about 20 minutes before we ended the call.
In all, I just want to say that I really miss my Nanna. The Matriarch of this growing family. Hundreds of us, all started with her. Mamie Jackson (McNary). I know she is having a great time as an angel in Heaven. May she live, while she rests.
