I was mostly through with my entry when all disappeared-- must have hit the wrong button, Anyway, I have fond memories of my Aunt Pat from my childhood in Vermont. Since we were all fairly close together, we'd all get together at my grandparents' home for a mini reunion. Those were great times. And we all look forward to the time of our bigger reunion with all our friends and relatives in the presence of our Heavenly Father and Lord Jesus.
