May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Roberta was a great aunt. Both of us were too young for her to die. If I only knew that she would go so fast I would have apperciated her more. 11 years weren't enough for me.
