Thanks so much, sj. Did you see the story I added after I posted? It’s so indicative of the type of lady she was. I haven’t been in contact with her in a long time since she lived in Connecticut and has been in very poor health for a number of years, but the world is a little less without her.

Great story. She sounds like an interesting woman.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm sorry, Pix. She sounds like a great woman.

Pix, I'm sorry for your aunt's loss. She sounds like a pistol.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
My condolences, Pix.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Pix, what a loss - for your family and the world.

Went to my uncle's funeral today and then TCG took me to a movie to distract me.
Mini rant: Dear relative, when trying to say something nice about how well you think I'm doing, maybe not start with "your grandmother was so upset when you were born."

Wow, yeah, no. When they were passing out tact, your relative thought they said "tacks" and ran to get a hammer, eh?
