I was very sorry to hear of Aunt Mary's death. She was always very good to me when I was young. There were a few summers where I would take the bus all by myself to Aunt Aurelia's to stay for a couple of weeks. Aunt Mary would usually come and visit. There was one summer where Aunt Mary and Aunt Aurelia took me shopping for new clothes and a winter coat. Aunt Mary allowed me to pick the coat of my choice, it was a jacket made of faux off white fur. It was so cool!

I have a lot of loving memories I will cherish.

Love, Cyndi
