My grandmother was someone whom I cared for dearly. From a young age, she was a key person in my life, and I will forever cherish the time we spent together. Many of my traits now, I learned from her as a child. One of my favorite memories with her will always be Thanksgiving. As a child, I would spend every Thanksgiving eve at my grandparents' house prepping for the big day ahead. From watching the Macy's Day parade to prepping the pies and playing with Nina. The holiday will forever hold a special place in my heart. I'm so blessed to have known someone as compassionate and forgiving as her. She taught me to live boldly and stay focused on the goals I want to achieve. As I continue to grow I hope I can still make her proud. You may not be here with us physically, but I know your presence will always be around. Rest in power, Queen. We miss you.
