As long as I can remember you,Auntie, you have always been there at every occasion. Without you...there would be no Santa Claus at every Christmas. When I married, you made sure I had enough bedding to last a few years. Your home was always open to us when we, 5 children and I, piled in on you, You and uncle Wally visited us in Texas, and were with us whenever you could. Your wit and love will stay with me forever in my heart.

It was always wonderful to spend time with my aunt. My fondest memories are of playing cards at her kitchen table. She was always cheerful and fun-loving. She will remain in my prayers.
