I thank you from the bottom of my heart. She deserved every bit of it. I realise that she lives on in every one of us in our hearts forever and she has seen it all from above."
The deep connection between Zanai and her grandmother was heartbreakingly evident during the final viewing, where she was seen breaking down in tears. Her grief reflected a lifelong bond that had remained steadfast until the very end.
