When I went in, I found him sitting on her bed. He just touched the urn and said, Take him away … all my life he just kept fighting with me.’(1) Why, do you think, Nana refused to cart s away Nani’s bed from the bedroom?(2) What was Nana’s reaction when Nani’s t ashes were being taken away for immersion ?
