Nan

Yesterday we lost another loved one - my remaining Nanna, Georgia's Great-Grandmother, passed away during the night. It came completely out of the blue, and was very unexpected - leaving us all pretty saddened and shocked.
She was a force to be reckoned with, and looked after my Pop, who is really going to struggle without her. I can't imagine being married to someone for 65+ years, and then trying to figure out how to live without them. I don't even know how I would get by without my husband - and our relationship is still a baby in the grand scheme of things.

I have some lovely photos of Georgia with her Great Nanna, and I'll always remember how Nan enjoyed hearing all about her. She also got to meet my nephew, which reminds me of my other Nanna passing two years ago - they held on to meet the important babies in their lives.

Rest well, Nan.
