Aunt Sue was on my mind the past couple of days. She is a very special lady. I would tell her she was my favorite Aunt, to which there was always an answer that we both would get a good laugh from.
Aunt Sue will be missed for a short time. She has gone to her long home. Those who have hope in the resurrection will see her again.
I am sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you all. Love you one and all.
