Nana grew up in Stockton, and from a very early age would have to see herself off to school as her mum would be out working from early hours of morning.By the age of seven my nana lost her father.And both her siblings died at a very young age.Her sister by a police car,and her brother in the war.She then lost her mum in her twenties to an illness.So i think it was then she became completley idolised by her children and their families because she really had no other immediate family left.Nana would often tell me stories over the years about our family lost,and with it sadness could always be heard through her voice.She was totally in love and in oar of her sister and i think the death of her she never truly accepted and could move on from.Thats probably why she became such a religious person because it then helped settle her mind.
