On a winter morning a decade ago, I met Nan sitting at the kitchen table with a crossword in one hand, a coffee in the other. At the time had no idea that she would have such an influence over my life. It was a wonderful influence, a loved influence and one that will be missed every day. She taught me many things that I shall carry with me forever and that I will never forget.
Nan I miss and love you and thank you for being my Nan.
