This is so sad. I really thought I’d see you again. And now this. As I sit and think about your life as I can remember the Things I remember most is that you are always on the go. I remember early on that you used to work for Ciba Geigy over the bridge. I was a teenager back then I knew I wanted to work in an office like you did because it seemed to be a very cool thing to do. You loved your job. And then when the kids started getting older and you needed to be closer to home you were this amazing Tupperware sales lady turned manager. You were an amazing sales person and actually had me involved with it for a little bit. And of course you loved everything about Tupperware because you were such an avid cook. You were an amazing cook. I’ll never forget I was over your house one night and you were showing me how to make the best chicken soup ever from my sick husband and it’s a recipe I use to this day. You loved everything about cooking tho. It was always an experience eating at your home.
Yes you were the one that got me into Paul Anka. To this day I remain a Paul Anka groupie as you were back in your day as president of his fan club. I often wonder if you are one of those screaming teenagers in some of those videos he shows at his concerts.
You were always the coolest of the coolest Aunts. After all, Who would allow their niece to go wake up their firstborn just because I wanted to go play with her. When you first gave birth to Rita, I was always hanging out with you and every time Rita with sleeping you would let me wake her up so I could play with her. How crazy is that, you were super cool.
So many amazing memories growing up and even more as I started to have my own children. Unfortunately life pulls us in separate directions Sometimes but the memories are always there. You were not just my aunt you were also my very good friend.
