One-by-one, Madikizela-Mandela's great-grandchildren spoke about the love they received from her.

 

They spoke at Madikizela-Mandela’s official memorial service at Orlando Stadium in Soweto. 

 

"Big mommy was the kindest, happiest, a most inspiring fashional person I knew. Big mommy, I will always miss you and love you so much, whether you are in heaven or on earth. Without you our lives would have been incomplete," said one of the great-grandchildren.
