When asked what she wants people to know, Gianna told Good Morning America correspondent Eva Pilgrim, That I miss him. Shealso shared what her dad was like, saying that he played with me.

With her mom Roxie Washington seated right beside her, little Gianna tried her best to answer the questions she was askedalthough it was obvious that she doesnt have a full understanding of whats going on. Roxie explained Georges relationship with Gianna, saying She didn’t have to play with nobody else because daddy was going to play with her all day long. That was his baby. He loved his little girl.

Since Gianna is still so young, Roxie admitted that she hasnt told her how her George died. She said, ‘I hear them. I hear them saying my daddy’s name.’ She doesn’t know what happened. I told her that her dad died because he couldn’t breathe.
