I´m not even sure what to say. It feels like it was just yesterday that I was in elementary school and was spending most weekends with you and Kyle. You always made me feel like I belonged there and treated me just the same. We used to go to the movies together and to the drive-ins. Kyle and I used to give you such a hard time about scary movies. I remember you making us put the one horror movie in the shed at the house on Mt Vernon just because you didn´t want it in the house! I remember Kyle and I trying to convince you the backyard was haunted LOL
I remember a lot of things from my childhood and there wasn´t a single minute where you ever treated me with anything but kindness and love. I´m glad you aren´t suffering and that you´re with Kyle and Aunt Eva and Uncle Ricky & Aunt Karen again. That doesn´t make us miss you any less.
Thank you for giving me so much love as a child and always believing in me. I love you, Aunt Tonya.
