Dear Nonnie,
How could I leave just one story when my life if full of stories and memories involving you? I am saddened by the loss of your life but I am thankful for the time I got to be in it. I learned many things from you, the biggest of them all is how to be strong when I thought I couldn't be. You were always a very STRONG woman in every sense of the word. Strong willed, strong opinions, strong in your traditions and well when my butt hurt after a spanking I knew you were strong in other ways! (; The night I found out you were called home all I could hear in my head is you shouting "Alexis Daniell" in that voice of yours. I think that is just burned into my brain. We had been through many laughs, tears and triumphs together. When Bubba used to run around the coffee table when he was in trouble singing "Ohh come on try to catch me, Ohh catch me if you can!" and you couldn't help but laugh and not be mad anymore. Our car accident that we survived through. You teaching me how to crochet when I would spend the night with you. Teaching me how to cook and be a lady. (though it didn't always work.) Truth is I don't know where to stop with this and I didn't know where to start. I am just soo glad you are at peace now, in every way. I will never forget you and you better believe my child on the way will know about my Nonnie and know that he/she will love you just as much as me. I love you to Heaven and back my beautiful angel.<3
