Dear Mama,
Sorry I can't be there in person to say my goodbyes (but you know me, I am away again)
Thank you for being a fantastic grandma, for taking Oliver and I on day trips out to Mansfield and Eastwood. Spoiling us at Christmas and Birthdays.
I am going to miss our fish and chips together in Eastwood (and the face you pull when I order chips, baked beans and curry sauce)
I can still remember sleeping over at your house when I was little, and you snoring away (not a normal person snore, but a mama snore)...trying to get to sleep, by looking at the boomerang on your wall and the two pictures (the two ladies one in pink and one in blue)
I can remember Sunday dinners at your house (which were AMAZING) and you would always shout
''No more pop, or you won't eat your dinner''
I shall miss you dearly mama.
I'm sorry I can't be there and that our only contact was a letter, and facetime with Laura and Auntie Karen at Christmas. In a way I got to remember you healthy and full of life.
I also wanted to say thank you for reading my letter with Auntie Annie, I have sent you another letter you can read over and over again...
Thank you so much for bringing the best man into the world...my dad. He's the kindest, caring, loving man/father/husband any one could ask for, he wouldn't the best dad without your help and influence, so thank you.
I know you are gone, and I can never have sandwiches on your sofa, with the telly blasting whilst I cleaned when dad was away. I know I can never see you, smell you, or give you a big hug and kisses again. I know I can never call you up to see if you're free for a day trip to Eastwood. Being so far away, has made your passing not a physical one, I'm not there to touch family, hug them and know it's real, which I have found to be really hard. I'm scared that I will get home and want to call you for fish and chips, bur you are not there.
I have sent you a letter which dad will look after for me as my way of saying good bye. Please look after me whilst I am on my travels.
I miss you, and think of you everyday.
Love you so much
Your Grand Daughter
Victoria
