Ma tante Marie est la tante qui a marqué le plus mes souvenirs!Tout petit enfant ma mère me disais ma tante Alice s`envient pour Noël, J`attendais son retour d`Allemagne je trouvais ça long très long!
Mais quel bonheur j`avais et que j`ai toujours retrouvé chaque fois que j`étais en sa présence!
Même si elle est décédée elle seras toujours vivante dans mes souvenirs!
