Dear Gran,
It was hard to only see you laying in your coffin after not remembering your face for more than 10 years. No matter how hard i tried to keep my tears from falling, they fell anyway. I never knew, in all this time, you'd be taken away before I reconnected with you. There are so many things I wanted to share with you. So many laughs I wanted to laugh with you. So many stories... And now they are fading, fading, gone. All I have no is a picture in a frame, and a memory of how peaceful you looked when we said goodbye. It's hard knowing i'll never hear you speak, laugh, cough, all those little things you used to do. It's all hidden in a little compartment in my memory labelled "Ouma". The view of the mountain from your bed, the warmth of your room, even now that you not there, you'll never be forgotten.

Thank you for what you meant for everyone. Thank you that I could reconnect with the rest of my family. Thank you for bringing us all together. Seems i cannot part from them, they are already a great part of my life. And i never want to lose them again.

I love you Ouma. Forever missed, forever loved.

Can't believe you gone. Rest In Peace
