Nana was a person who brought so much joy to everyone she encountered. She had a way of making each person feel so special. She always saw the good in everyone and in every situation, and was free in expressing her love and her trust in you. Her positivity, gratitude and determination are some of her many beautiful qualities that I hope I can emulate. We're going to miss her beautiful smile which had a way of brightening up our days! May Hashem comfort her family and may her memory be for a blessing.
