You will be missed Aunt Tootsie. I know she hated that name, once she was older but we will always remember her as Aunt Tootsie. She had a good life always being active in the Catholic church, and her family. She was the one who taught me to say the rosary.
I hated it as a kid but, I was grateful once I was old enough to understand it, that i could say it.
She was always a part of my life and she will be missed.
She will be joined in heaven along with her mom and dad, sister Marion, and all her brothers who have gone before her Elmer, Buddy, Kenny, Freddy, & Gerald.
now that is one heck of a party.
love Marianne Plambeck Hall
