“I have always admired my Auntie and Godmother Joan. When we were young, she was a teacher. 50 years ago, being a teacher was a rather admirable occupation. My Aunt always dressed so lovely and I believe I thought her to be quite fancy. Times goes by. We grow up. My husband Gary and I had the opportunity to visit with my Aunt about a month ago. We had not seen each other in some years. We had the most lovely visit. We hugged and talked of the old days. Forever grateful. You are loved.”
