Her granddaughter Jackie wrote this tribute for her Nano “You didn’t just notice her when you walked in the room, you wanted to be her. Always fashionable, true to who she was, and brave enough to chart her own course in life, Nano wasn’t afraid to make her own rules. I’ve always admired her for living life exactly on her terms. I know they will have some of the finest flea markets and beauty salons in heaven. Love you Nano.”
