Tragically, five years ago, Rosanna's dad, who she referred to as 'Papa Pizza', passed away following a six-year battle with leukemia - which is a blanket term for cancer of the blood cells.

Speaking about her father and his dying wish on the Rodiculous Podcast, Pansino said: "My dad was a badass and quite a little rebel and I will be following in his footsteps, like father like daughter, so to start this episode I want to tell you guys about my dad's dying wish.

"Before he passed, he told me and my mom what he would like us to do with his ashes, and at first, my mom was a little bit hesitant, because she thought this is kind of hippie, you know, people are going to judge us.

"But as time has gone on and it's been five years now, we just really think that it's the right time to do what dad wanted and to honor him the way he wanted."

Adding: "So, years ago, he told me and my mom that he would like us to take his ashes, mix it in with some soil, and grow a marijuana plant and smoke him.

"I told you he was a rebel, and I actually have footage of us doing this together. It was very emotional and special, and I'm glad that we got to have these memories like honoring dad together."

The content creator went on to explain that she contacted a cannabis license grower who lived near her in California to help her bring his dream to fruition.

She continued: "Anyways back to it. We've just recently harvested the cannabis plant and we made joints I have this cute little carrying case, and a friend of mine helped me roll these, and not only are they adorable, but they are rolled with pink rolling paper, so they even match the set.

"I mean this, if Papa Pizza could see this, you guys, he would just... he would get a huge kick out of this, so at the end of this podcast episode, I am going to be fulfilling my dad's wish and honoring him."

It is the hardest thing in the world saying saying goodbye to loved ones, but following through on their final wishes can really help bring whatever closure is possible.
