    My dear aunt, you will always be loved, remembered, and cherished. We had great times and fun memories. When I was little, Sundays at Nana’s, you cooking and keeping us in line while Tommy got out the ice cream.
    Holidays and at your house, the purple chairs! I believe that’s where my love of purple came from. And after we came to Florida, you always sent something to Steve at Christmas.
    Love you,
    Kathy
