I have many great childhood memories of my Aunt Adeline. A strong, smart, independent woman, she had a terrific sense of humor, and a warm heart. She always remembered all of the names of her million or so neices and nephews, even those of us who were not exactly that, and she treated everyone with dignity and respect, even when we were small children and sometimes ( rarely) misbehaved. My life has been blessed by Aunt Adeline's kindeness. May she rest in peace with her Mom and Dad, and her brothers and sisters, all waiting for her in heaven.
