I really do love this woman and am so proud and blessed to have had her as my aunt. She always made me feel so special and was so kind and generous to me. I could share my duck story but everyone already knows that one. There were so many wonderful special times with her. I had one of my best weekends of my adult life with her aid. She not only helped me out by giving me the opportunity but also for covering for me when I returned. She was one cool friend as well as a loving aunt. I am so grateful for her and the four beautiful children she allowed me to get to know and enjoy. SHe would keep me for weeks at a time sometimes when I was I'm Wisconsin. I never felt like a cousin to them but more like just another one of her kids. She is truly one significant relationship in my life that I will always cherish. Thank you for all you did for me to make my life so much richer. I love you.
