Talking to CBS Los Angeles, Ganczewski shared his love for his grandma, saying, “She is the most important woman in my life. If it wasn’t for her, my mom wouldn’t be here, and she wouldn’t have had me. And I love her, and I’d do anything for her.”
Josephine talked about her initial response when Ganczewski asked her to the prom, saying, “I said I’m an old lady. I’m not going to the prom.” She thought Ganczewski, being a good-looking young man, could have asked anyone. But he insisted she was the only one he wanted.
Not knowing the latest dances, Josephine said, “Well, I don’t know any new dances, but I plan to do my best.” Her grandson’s wish to make her feel special touched her deeply. She said, “For the rest of my life, however long that is, I will never forget that he wanted to bring his Nana and show me a good time. That, to me, is very special.”
