My Aunt Nancy has always been a special person in my life. I remember spending lots of time there as a young child. She always had a witty sense of humor. She always opened up her home to us. My fondest memories where going to her house on the holidays and seeing all the cousins. It was loud but fun except when her dog Sampson would pin my against the couch. Lol. Give my mom a hug for me.
We are so sorry for the loss of your beloved family member. Sending prayers for peace and healing during this difficult time.
