I lost my Great Grandma when I was ten, but only a few weeks ago, I said to my friend 'I miss her'. But I only miss her physical presence. She's always with me, and she's saved my skin on countless occasions. She too was one of those ladies who made you feel priveleged to have met her. My thoughts are with you, but remember, like my Grandma told me herself "They can do more for you up there than they can down here".
You're not alone.
