I miss my Nonnu. Here are a few things he used to say to me:
"I'm gunna knock you out, sucka!"
"I'll give you good lickin'!"
"You want a lesson?"
"You got cold hands...but a warm heart..."
"Watch it Old Man!"
"Watch it Old Man!"
"You got the belly button of a fat person!"
"Girl, you must have a hollow leg!"
"You hesitate, you speculate!"
"Where'd that big boy come from?"
"It's bingo time in the rockies!"
"The party's over...."
"I love you."

My favorite Nonnu memory was when he sent you money and told you to buy something your parents didn't want you to have. He was a good man.
