Peggy Joan Collins

I remember when Nan died. I was going to do a reading at the funeral service and asked Alan what he remembered about her. He said his most vivid memory was of her sitting in her chair with a table in front of her which was covered in magazines and newspapers. She would occasionally remark on a story of interest and seemed to believe everything she read, like it was gospel.

I love that Alan remembered her like that. I remember visiting nan at the hospice, and in the funeral home, but I didn't see MY nan. MY nan was the lady who got worked up about stories in the papers, who fell asleep after dinner and woke herself up snoring! I remember the lady who taught me never to hate someone, yet always had an issue with some person or another herself!

One day, complaining about my dad, my nan told me I could have done a lot worse than him (of course being a bratty teenager I replied that I also could have done a lot better!). But when it comes to my nan, I know she had her flaws (many of which I have inherited!) but I certainly don't believe I could have done any better than have her as my nan.

I love you Nan, wherever you are, and hope that you are still keeping an eye on us (although not too closely!) and that you are proud of the people we have grown up to be.

Death leaves a heartache
no one can heal
