I've always been so very proud to have my middle name after your first. I sent you a card on your 100th birthday and got the sweetest letter from you in return. I love you so much, and much love to all the family.

My dear Aunt Ilean I last saw her on her 100th birthday she looked so good and so spry. It blessed my heart to see her and catch up on all our fond memories. She was a sweet lady and will be missed.
