Dearest Nana Tears were cascading down my face. I was shocked when the horrible news came to me. I had loved you so much and wanted to go to heaven with you. I cried for an hour and that's when I realised we would be together once more. It's going to be a long time until then but always, ALWAYS remember... I LOVE YOU. Sienna Melocco (age 9)
