I'm so thankful to have had an Aunt like you in my life. You showed me how to be kind, caring, and fun loving. You may not have realized it, but I learned how to be a better person just from being around you. My heart is filled with joy when I think about you, but it's also filled with sadness when I think of how long it will be until we meet again. I will not forget you and will always love you Aunt Mary Lou.
