My Aunt brought me to some interesting places….including Mexico City, Gulf Shores, Freehold, Nj (home of Bruce Springsteen), Baltimore, and Wisconsin!!! She always made me laugh and again her laugh was the best!! It was infectious!!! She and my Dad would talk every weekend; and he looked forward to those conversations every week!! He adored his Sisters!!! My only regret is we lived so far away from each other!! We Love You so much, Aunt Eleanor!! I know you, your brother, sister, and parents are so happy to see each other again!!
