“I lost someone so very special”
Posted by Jordan Steele on November 12, 2009
My absence was due to being in the Hospital due to a GD Upper respiratory infection. That’s all fine and good, but the kicker is that Mon Nov, 9 2009 I found out that I lost my Tranny Granny, she passed away at 930pm. I guess god felt the need to collect one of his angels. I always respected Miss Portia Lynn Van Buren, not only was she a friend, but she was my personal seamstress when I was doing pageants..and not bragging but with her craftsmanship, I had THE BEST costumes. Gowns, etc. I spoke to her 3 weeks ago, we laughed and carried on like no time had passed. She was one of the few real friends that tried, no let me rephrase that, BEGGED me to escape my abusive ex Steve, But I was young and dumb and went back, but I do remember him being mean to me and Granny took him outside and WHOOPED the shit out of him!! I have nothing but fond memories of her, and someday soon I shall see you my special friend! Until then look down on me and smile and give me guidance…You’ll always be in my heart!!! I just pray that I can impact lives in the new girls they way you did me, if anything Portia you taught me to pay it forward!! I’ll miss you forever! I love you!!

May the days until you “see” your granny be measured in years and may the joy and memories you leave to others be measured in gratitude of quantities unknown.

The loss of someone you love is a hole that can never be filled. But time and remembering her love will lessen the pain of the loss. You are in my thoughts and prays dear.

Hi Jordan,
I’m so sorry for your loss. I know that you have many fond memories of your dear friend Miss Portia. I can appreciate the grief that you are experiencing. I lost a very dear friend in September and was devastated by her unexpected passing. Take care!
